Frequently Asked Questions
Q.What is SHA-256?
SHA-256 is a cryptographic hash function that produces a fixed 256-bit (64-character hex) digest from any input. It is part of the SHA-2 family.
Q.Can I reverse a SHA-256 hash?
No. SHA-256 is a one-way function. You cannot derive the original input from the hash output.
Q.What is SHA-256 used for?
File integrity verification, password hashing, digital signatures, blockchain, and data deduplication.
