Frequently Asked Questions
The Web Crypto API (crypto.subtle) deliberately doesn't support MD5, since it's considered cryptographically broken. This tool includes its own RFC 1321-compliant MD5 implementation to still offer it for legacy/non-security use cases.
No — MD5 is cryptographically broken (collision attacks are practical) and should never be used for password storage or security-sensitive hashing. Use the Password Hash Generator (PBKDF2-based) for password hashing instead.
Non-security checksums — verifying file integrity against accidental corruption, cache keys, or de-duplication — where cryptographic collision-resistance doesn't matter.
No — hashing happens entirely in your browser.
