A cryptographic hash function (CHF) is a hash algorithm (a map of an arbitrary binary string to a binary string with a fixed size of n {\displaystyle...

derived from a hash function which takes a data input and returns a fixed length of bits. Although hash algorithms, especially cryptographic hash algorithms...

BLAKE is a cryptographic hash function based on Daniel J. Bernstein's ChaCha stream cipher, but a permuted copy of the input block, XORed with round constants...

This is a list of hash functions, including cyclic redundancy checks, checksum functions, and cryptographic hash functions. Adler-32 is often mistaken...

general and technical information for a number of cryptographic hash functions. See the individual functions' articles for further information. This article...

output. The values returned by a hash function are called hash values, hash codes, hash digests, digests, or simply hashes. The values are usually used to...
