Hash Generator

Hash text or a file with SHA-2 (SHA-256/384/512) and the quantum-resistant SHA-3 family — SHA3-256/384/512 and the SHAKE256 XOF used in the post-quantum signature scheme SPHINCS+. SHA-2 runs on the browser's native crypto so a large file hashes at full speed; SHA-3 comes from a small audited library. Compare against an expected checksum to verify a download in one glance. Nothing is uploaded.

Case-insensitive; a leading 0x is ignored. The matching algorithm lights up below.

SHA-3 · quantum-resistanthex

Keccak — the newest NIST standard (FIPS 202), and the hash under SPHINCS+ and ML-DSA. A hash is already safe from Shor's algorithm; Grover's only halves its strength, so any digest of 256 bits or more keeps a 128-bit margin against a quantum attacker.

Method & assumptions
  • SHA-2 hashing uses the browser's native SubtleCrypto, so even a large file is fingerprinted at full speed. SHA-3 uses @noble/hashes, a small audited library — both run entirely in your browser.
  • Quantum resistance, for a hash, is a matter of output size. A quantum computer does not break hashing the way Shor's algorithm breaks RSA; Grover's algorithm only halves the strength, so any digest of 256 bits or more keeps a 128-bit quantum margin.
  • SHA-3 (Keccak) is the newest NIST standard and structurally unlike SHA-2, which is why it is offered alongside it. SHAKE256 is shown at its first 512 bits — the size used in SPHINCS+ and ML-DSA.
  • SHA-1 is shown for verifying legacy artifacts; treat it as broken for anything security-sensitive and prefer SHA-256 or better.
  • Text is hashed as UTF-8 bytes; a file is hashed exactly as it sits on disk, byte for byte. Client-side only.
