About SHA3-224 File Hash Checksum
The SHA3-224 file hash checksum efficiently calculates the SHA3-224 hash value of files, providing reliable and advanced file hashing technology to ensure the integrity and security of files.
Note: SHA3-224 is a Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA) variant, belonging to the SHA-3 series of algorithms, developed by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) of the United States. SHA3-224 provides a 224-bit hash value, serving as a cryptographic hash function capable of transforming inputs of arbitrary length (typically a file or message) into fixed-length (224 bits, i.e., 28 bytes) output.
• Features
Fixed-Length Output: Regardless of the input data size, SHA3-224 always produces a 224-bit (28-byte) hash value.
Collision Resistance: It is difficult to find two different input data that produce the same hash value. This includes strong collision resistance and weak collision resistance.
Preimage Resistance: Given a hash value, it is nearly impossible to find an original input data with that hash value.
Second Preimage Resistance: Given input data and its hash value, it is difficult to find another different input data with the same hash value.
High Computational Efficiency: SHA3-224 is designed with good computational efficiency, suitable for various hardware and software environments.
Security: Compared to the SHA-2 series, the SHA-3 series offers a different design structure, enhancing security, especially in resisting certain types of cryptographic attacks.
• Applications
Data Integrity Verification: SHA3-224 can be used to verify the integrity of files or data during transmission or storage processes, ensuring that the data you receive matches the original data sent by the sender.
Digital Signatures: SHA3-224 is used in generating the hash value of messages in digital signatures, followed by encrypting this hash value to confirm the identity of the message sender and verify the integrity of the message.
Secure Storage: In cryptographic storage solutions, SHA3-224 is used to store hashed values of passwords instead of plaintext, enhancing the security of stored data.
Blockchain Technology: In specific blockchain applications, using SHA3-224 for hashing ensures the immutability and integrity of transaction records.
Software Security: Provide the SHA3-224 hash value during software release to verify the authenticity and integrity of downloaded files, thus preventing malicious software tampering.
