Hash Identifier
Identify hash types by length and character set — detects MD5, SHA, bcrypt, and 20+ more.
How hash identification works
Hash algorithms produce output of a fixed length and character set. By analyzing the length (in hex digits) and the character set (pure hex vs. mixed case vs. special prefixes like $2y$ for bcrypt), it's often possible to narrow down the algorithm. Many hashes of the same length are indistinguishable from each other — for example, MD5, RIPEMD-128, and NTLM all produce 32 hex characters.
To generate hashes, use the Hash Generator. To check password strength, see Password Strength Checker.
