› About this tool · FAQ
Generate, verify, and compare file hashes for integrity checking using multiple cryptographic algorithms.
Which hash algorithm should I use?
SHA-256 is recommended for security-critical applications. SHA-512 offers higher security. Avoid MD5 and SHA-1 for security purposes. Use BLAKE2b for performance-critical applications.
What checksum file formats are supported?
Supports standard formats including GNU-style (hash filename), BSD-style (ALGORITHM (filename) = hash), SFV, and MD5SUM/SHA256SUM formats.
How accurate is the hash verification?
Hash verification is cryptographically secure. A matching hash provides extremely high confidence (99.999...%) that data is identical, while mismatches definitively indicate changes.
Can I verify multiple files at once?
Yes, use batch mode with checksum files. The tool parses standard checksum file formats and can verify multiple entries simultaneously.
What happens if I use a deprecated algorithm?
The tool warns about deprecated algorithms (MD5, SHA-1) but still processes them for compatibility. Use modern algorithms like SHA-256 for new applications.
