About SHA-224
SHA-224 is a cryptographic hash function from the SHA-2 family. It produces a 224-bit (56-character hexadecimal) hash value. SHA-224 is similar to SHA-256 but with a reduced digest size, achieved by truncating the internal state of the algorithm before the final step.
While SHA-224 is part of the SHA-2 family, it is less commonly used than SHA-256 or SHA-512. It is primarily used in applications where a shorter hash value is desired but the security of SHA-2 is still required. SHA-224 is considered secure against all known attacks as of current research.
Note:SHA-224 is suitable for applications requiring a shorter hash while maintaining the security properties of SHA-2. However, for general purposes, SHA-256 is more commonly recommended.
Common Use Cases
- Applications requiring shorter hash outputs
- File integrity checks
- Non-critical cryptographic applications
- Legacy systems requiring specific digest sizes
