Hello Sugumar, There are sites that store the commonly used strings and hashed strings. For example for hello sha2 hash is this 2cf24dba5fb0a30e26e83b2ac5b9e29e1b161e5c1fa7425e73043362938b9824
If you copy paste this in google, you would see hello they dont do reverse of this hash but they hashed some commonly used strings and kept in their DB, using this only they give the original string. That is why we need to use a salt string along with your original string. regards, James On Tue, Apr 5, 2016 at 11:44 AM, Sugumar <sugu.ec...@gmail.com> wrote: > Thanks for all the information provided.
