SHA-3/384 Generator

Created on 9 November, 2025 • Generator Tools • 0 views

Create SHA-3/384 hashes for higher security margins and long-term archival integrity with modern Keccak design.

Snapshot

SHA-3/384 delivers a 384-bit digest—more space against collisions with SHA-3’s sponge construction.

When to Use / When Not

1. Use when: You need stronger margins than 256-bit digests for archives or signatures.
2. Avoid when: Ecosystem support is limited and SHA-2 suffices.

How to Generate (Step-by-Step)

1. Provide bytes via stream for large objects.
2. Compute SHA-3/384; capture 96-char hex.
3. Store with provenance (source, version).

Implementation Notes

1. Keep algorithm labels explicit; don’t conflate SHA-2/SHA-3.
2. Validate results with an independent tool.
3. Consider performance on low-power devices.

FAQs

Why SHA-3 over SHA-2?

Different design family—useful for diversification or compliance.

Any size constraints?

Digest is 48 bytes in binary; plan storage accordingly.
