RIPEMD Hash Generator
What is RIPEMD?
RIPEMD
(RACE Integrity Primitives Evaluation Message Digest) is a set of
cryptographic hash functions designed by Hans Dobbertin, Antoon Bosselaers
and Bart Preneel.
This algorithm has 4 versions:
- RIPEMD128,
- RIPEMD160,
- RIPEMD256,
- RIPEMD320.
RIPEMD160
RIPEMD160 was published in 1996. It produces a 160-bit message digest (40-digit hexadecimal number) and is less frequently used than SHA1 or MD5 algorithm. The 256 and 320-bit versions don't have higher levels of security than RIPEMD160 (they reduce only the chance of accidental collision).
Our RIPEMD generator converts a string into a hash value. For example, if you type:
"RIPEMD Hash Generator"
in the input field above and submit you get a digit:
c88a2f06ffcb94e713a918366b3fecddb5f78043.
But even a small change in the text will result in a completely different RIPEMD hash. For example, if you type:
"RIPEMD Hash Generator."
and submit form then you get a completely diffrent RIPEMD hash:
