Hashing and Hashing Algorithms - md5 sha1 sha256 sha2 sha3 - Cryptography Essentials
In this video, we dive into the fascinating world of hashing and how it transforms data. You'll learn how hashing algorithms, like MD5 and SHA, convert messages into unique, fixed-length strings called digests. Hashing plays a critical role in ensuring data integrity and security, making it a foundational concept in cryptography and networking.
We break down the basics of hashing with simple examples, showing you how a hashing algorithm works and why it's crucial for comparing and verifying data. We also touch on the efficiency and practical applications of hashing in bulk data processing.
💡 Key Takeaways:
Understand how hashing algorithms transform data into a digest.
Learn why hashing is essential for data integrity and security.
Explore common hashing algorithms such as MD5, SHA-1, and SHA-256.
Discover the differences between SHA-2 and SHA-3 families.
