Important:
The outputs generated here are useful for testing, comparisons and development. For real password storage, use Argon2id or bcrypt on the server through your framework.
Options
Recommended order
- Argon2id - recommended for server-side password storage.
- bcrypt - mature and widely used server-side option.
- PBKDF2-SHA512 - available in the browser for key derivation.
- PBKDF2-SHA256 - compatible and useful for standard workflows.
- HMAC-SHA512 - keyed hash for verification and signatures.
- SHA-512 / SHA-384 - fast digest, not ideal alone for passwords.
- SHA-256 - widely used digest, but insufficient alone for stored passwords.
