This software generates hashes for files and text using various algorithms such as MD5, SHA1, SHA2, SHA3, Blake2, Blake3, XXHash64 and more.
This software review is focused on a Windows command-line utility that is designed for generating, storing, and comparing hashes for files and text strings. The utility supports a wide range of hash algorithms, including MD5, SHA1, SHA2, SHA3, Blake2, Blake3, and XXHash64, among others.
One of the primary use cases for this utility is for file integrity validation in scripts. It provides a secure cryptographic algorithm for SHA2 [256, 384, 512], SHA3 [256, 384, 512], BLAKE2S, BLAKE2B, and BLAKE3. Additionally, it features a few obsolete cryptographic algorithms, such as MD5 and SHA1.
The utility also includes non-cryptographic algorithms, such as XXHash64 and MurmurHash3_128 [x86, x64]. This feature makes it easier for users to handle hash comparisons for non-security related scenarios.
Overall, this Windows command-line utility is a great tool for generating, storing, and comparing hashes. Its support for multiple hash algorithms makes it incredibly versatile, while its focus on secure cryptographic algorithms ensures user data remains safe.
