About md5 generation

What is md5?

MD5 (Message-Digest algorithm 5) that is used to verify data integrity through the creation of a 128-bit (16 bytes) message digest from data input (which may be a message of any length) that is claimed to be as unique to that specific data as a fingerprint is to the specific individual.

As an Internet standard, MD5 has been employed in a wide variety of security applications, and is also commonly used to check the integrity of files.

MD5 hash is composed of 32 hexadecimal characters. Enter a word or some text in the MD5 online form above to know the corresponding MD5 hash.

The MD5 hash is NOT encryption. This is just a fingerprint of this entry. However, this is a one-way transaction, and therefore it is almost impossible to reverse the MD5 hash to get the original string.

How to generate md5 hash online?

Using our tool you need just paste your TEXT to the textarea above and click to the button "Generate" and you will get md5 hash.

How do I get the MD5 hash of a file?

You can upload the contents of your file to our tool or click on the "browse" button in the editor and select your file, and then you need to click on the "Generate" button to get the MD5 hash from your file.

Can two files or string generate same checksum?

Two files can have the same MD5 hash even if they are different. Because the MD5 algorithm can take an infinite number of inputs and produce a limited number of outputs. But the probability of this is very small.

Where is md5 hash used?

MD5 hashes are used to store passwords so as not to store them in the clear, but now programmers are using other hashing or encoding methods, because MD5 is considered insecure. It is also very often used to check the integrity of files when downloading.
