What is Hashing?

Hashing is the process of converting an input of any length into a fixed-size string of characters, which is usually a hexadecimal number. Hashing is a one-way function; you cannot revert the hash back to the original text.

SHA-256 vs SHA-1

SHA-256 belongs to the SHA-2 family and is considered highly secure for password hashing and data integrity. SHA-1 is an older standard that is no longer recommended for high-security applications due to collision vulnerabilities.
