About SHA-1 Hash
What is SHA-1?
SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) is a cryptographic hash function that produces a 160-bit hash value, typically expressed as a 40-character hexadecimal number.
Common Use Cases
- • Legacy system compatibility
- • Git version control
- • Digital certificates (deprecated)
- • File integrity checks
Security Note
SHA-1 is considered cryptographically weak and should not be used for security-sensitive applications. Use SHA-256 or SHA-3 for new applications.
