    hash HAS-160: 160 bits hash HAVAL: 128 to 256 bits hash JH: 224 to 512 bits hash LSH [19] 256 to 512 bits wide-pipe Merkle–Damgård construction: MD2: 128 bits hash MD4: 128 bits hash MD5: 128 bits Merkle–Damgård construction: MD6: up to 512 bits Merkle tree NLFSR (it is also a keyed hash function) RadioGatún: arbitrary ideal mangling ...

  3. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    A mid-squares hash code is produced by squaring the input and extracting an appropriate number of middle digits or bits. For example, if the input is 123 456 789 and the hash table size 10 000, then squaring the key produces 15 241 578 750 190 521, so the hash code is taken as the middle 4 digits of the 17-digit number (ignoring the high digit ...

  4. BLAKE (hash function) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BLAKE_(hash_function)

    BLAKE is a cryptographic hash function based on Daniel J. Bernstein's ChaCha stream cipher, but a permuted copy of the input block, XORed with round constants, is added before each ChaCha round. Like SHA-2, there are two variants differing in the word size. ChaCha operates on a 4×4 array of words.

  5. Hash collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_collision

    John Smith and Sandra Dee share the same hash value of 02, causing a hash collision. In computer science, a hash collision or hash clash [1] is when two distinct pieces of data in a hash table share the same hash value. The hash value in this case is derived from a hash function which takes a data input and returns a fixed length of bits. [2]

  6. Hash-based cryptography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash-based_cryptography

    It is of interest as a type of post-quantum cryptography. So far, hash-based cryptography is used to construct digital signatures schemes such as the Merkle signature scheme, zero knowledge and computationally integrity proofs, such as the zk-STARK [1] proof system and range proofs over issued credentials via the HashWires [2] protocol.

  7. Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function

    Most cryptographic hash functions are designed to take a string of any length as input and produce a fixed-length hash value. A cryptographic hash function must be able to withstand all known types of cryptanalytic attack. In theoretical cryptography, the security level of a cryptographic hash function has been defined using the following ...

  8. Puzzle friendliness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Puzzle_friendliness

    In cryptography, puzzle friendliness is a property of cryptographic hash functions. Not all cryptographic hash functions have this property. SHA-256 is a cryptographic hash function that has this property. Informally, a hash function is puzzle friendly if no solution exists, which is better than just making random guesses and the only way to ...

  9. Universal hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_hashing

    This is exactly the probability of collision we would expect if the hash function assigned truly random hash codes to every key. Sometimes, the definition is relaxed by a constant factor, only requiring collision probability O ( 1 / m ) {\displaystyle O(1/m)} rather than ≤ 1 / m {\displaystyle \leq 1/m} .
