Re: [openssl-users] Is SHA hashing algorithm reversable?

Hi, I always use like this Hash ( salt + password ) You can use like this also Hash ( hash(salt) + password ) regards, James On Tue, Apr 5, 2016 at 1:52 PM, Sugumar wrote: > Hello, > > Ya you are correct James. > But my doubt is what is the best method to hash the password

Re: [openssl-users] Is SHA hashing algorithm reversable?

Hello, Ya you are correct James. But my doubt is what is the best method to hash the password securely with salt. I mean which method is preferred by openssl, HashValue = Hash(password + salt). HashValue = Hash( Hash(password) + salt). or something else? HashValue = Hash(password) + Hash(salt).

Re: [openssl-users] Is SHA hashing algorithm reversable?

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

Re: [openssl-users] Is SHA hashing algorithm reversable?

Thanks for all the information provided. Really its very nice information. And one more question, if i am using a salt with the password for computing a hash value i need to store the salt for future reference and what about the scenario when attacker gets that salt and hash. That time it may be

Hi, > But i saw some online websites giving the original data by reversing the hash data. If they can, this is NOT by reversing the hash data. You will find lots of articles on the web to explain how it can be 'cracked', for example : https://crackstation.net/hashing-security.htm --

[openssl-users] Is SHA hashing algorithm reversable?

Hi, I going to use SHA256 algorithm for storing my passwords in secure manner. But after reading some documentations related to SHA i come to know it is not reversable. Yes hashing means its not reversable only. But i saw some online websites giving the original data by reversing the hash data.
