ℹ️ About MD5 Hash

MD5 (Message Digest Algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit (16-byte) hash value, typically expressed as a 32-character hexadecimal number.

βœ… Common Uses:

  • β€’ File integrity verification
  • β€’ Digital signatures
  • β€’ Checksums for downloads
  • β€’ Password hashing (legacy)
  • β€’ Data fingerprinting

⚠️ Security Note:

  • β€’ MD5 is cryptographically broken
  • β€’ Vulnerable to collision attacks
  • β€’ Not recommended for security
  • β€’ Use SHA-256 for security
  • β€’ Still useful for file integrity
