> A hash is a short sequence of characters that uniquely represents a
> piece of
> text. Changing any part of the text will change its hash.

>
> Store the hash of one field or the concatenation of many fields to
> determine
> when any of them have been altered. This can be used for security
> or to
> determine when changed records in two databases need to be
> synchronized.

> When a hash is "strong", it's virtually impossible to calculate what
> text
> created it. Therefore, if you store a strong hash of a password
> instead of
> the password itself, only the hash can be stolen, but the hash won't
> reveal
> the password. To verify a password, just compare its hash to the
> hash you
> stored.

> 2empowerFM Hash Generator supports TR1, MD5, SHA1, SHA256, and

> of the strongest hashing methods available) and uses well-tested,
> third-party hashing libraries.
