Description

Interface Summary

Hash	A Cryptographic Hash represents a one-way conversion algorithm that transforms an input source to an underlying byte array.

Class Summary

AbstractHash	Provides a base for all Shiro Hash algorithms with support for salts and multiple hash iterations.
Md2Hash	Generates an MD2 Hash (RFC 1319) from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.
Md5Hash	Generates an MD5 Hash (RFC 1321) from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.
Sha1Hash	Generates an SHA-1 Hash (Secure Hash Standard, NIST FIPS 180-1) from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.
Sha256Hash	Generates an SHA-256 Hash from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.
Sha384Hash	Generates an SHA-384 Hash from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.
Sha512Hash	Generates an SHA-512 Hash from a given input source with an optional salt and hash iterations.

Package org.apache.shiro.crypto.hash Description

Cryptographic Hashing components that greatly simplify one-way data hashing in an application.

The Hash interface and its implementations are significantly easier to understand and use compared to the JDK's MessageDigest mechanism.
