Examples of Cryptographic Hash Functions MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5): Once popular, MD5 has been phased out due to vulnerabilities that make it susceptible to collision attacks.

RSA and hashing are two cryptographic functions that are widely used together. RSA provides the encryption using a public and private key, and hashing creates a binary fingerprint. For example, in ...

Google and Amsterdam-based researchers show a widely-used encryption algorithm is broken. Here's what that means and why it matters to the average consumer.

Chaotic hash functions represent a cutting‐edge convergence between nonlinear dynamics and cryptographic science. These functions employ chaotic maps—mathematical systems that exhibit extreme ...

A hash rate may refer to computations in a single GPU in one computer, a crypto mining machine, or hundreds of machines in a mining datacenter (see ASIC miner). See cryptographic hash function.
