SHA-1 is one of the most prevalent forms of a secure hash algorithm used in the legal and security industry. Now that Professor Xiaoyun Wang and her associates in Tsinghua University and Shandong ...

In 1992, he improved on MD4 and developed another hash function: MD5. In 1993, the National Security Agency published a hash function very similar to MD5, called the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA).

The National Institute of Standards and Technology retired one of the first widely used cryptographic algorithms, citing vulnerabilities that make further use inadvisable, Thursday. NIST recommended ...

Hash algorithms are used by government agencies and businesses worldwide to make online transactions secure, store passwords and verify digital files and signatures.

Ron Rivest invented the MD4 and MD5 hash functions in the early 1990s. Then the National Security Agency published a similar hash function called the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA), followed by SHA-1 ...
