Keep in mind
A hash is a one-way digest and cannot be decrypted to recover the original text. This tool is not for password storage; use a dedicated password-hashing scheme for that purpose.
Common questions
Why do similar-looking texts produce different digests? Spaces, line endings, capitalization and Unicode representations can change the input bytes.
