  • Using fast hashes for password storage instead of password hashing algorithms.
    • 
                                                            
  • Hashing text with invisible whitespace differences.
    •

FAQ

                        

                                                            

                                    Does this support password hashing?
                                    
No. Use bcrypt, Argon2 or another password hashing algorithm for passwords.

                                

                                                            

                                    Is data sent to a server?
                                    
No. Hashing runs locally in the browser.

                                

                                                            

                                    Which hash is generated?
                                    
This first version generates SHA-256.
