How to use this tool
Paste UTF-8 text and select a SHA-2 digest size. The browser Web Crypto API calculates its hexadecimal digest without uploading the text. A hash cannot be reversed in the normal way, but SHA-2 alone is NOT a password-storage scheme; password databases should use Argon2id, scrypt or a similarly appropriate password hashing algorithm.
Questions and answers
Is a hash the same as encryption?
No. A cryptographic hash is one-way and does not use a decryption key.
Will the same input produce the same digest?
Yes. For identical bytes and the same algorithm, the result is deterministic.
