About Hash Functions
Cryptographic hash functions convert data of any size into a fixed-size output. They have these key properties:
- One-way function: It's practically impossible to reverse a hash to obtain the original data.
- Deterministic: The same input will always produce the same hash output.
- Avalanche effect: A small change to the input produces a completely different hash.
- Collision resistance: It's difficult to find two different inputs that hash to the same output.
Common uses include: Password storage, data integrity verification, file checksums, digital signatures.
