About SHA3-224

SHA3-224 is a cryptographic hash function from the SHA-3 family, standardized by NIST in 2015. It produces a 224-bit (56-character hexadecimal) hash value and is designed to provide high security against all known attacks, including those targeting SHA-2 family functions.

Unlike the SHA-2 family, SHA-3 is based on the Keccak algorithm, which uses a sponge construction. This makes SHA-3 inherently different and provides an additional layer of security, especially in the face of potential future advances in cryptanalysis.

Note:SHA3-224 is suitable for applications requiring a shorter hash output while maintaining strong security properties. It is particularly recommended for systems where resistance to quantum computing attacks is a concern.

Common Use Cases

  • Applications requiring shorter hash outputs
  • Storage-constrained environments
  • Security systems requiring high collision resistance
  • Applications requiring resistance to quantum attacks
  • Digital signatures and certificate systems
