About this Tool

Use this browser-based password hash generator for testing, development and migration work. Choose a supported password-hashing algorithm, generate a random salt and review the resulting encoded hash without transmitting the password.

Examples

  • Hash a password with PBKDF2
  • Hash a password with scrypt
  • Generate a salted password hash

Frequently Asked Questions

Which algorithms should be supported?

Modern options such as Argon2id, scrypt, bcrypt and PBKDF2 are suitable depending on compatibility and implementation requirements.

Why is a salt required?

A random salt prevents identical passwords from producing identical stored hashes and makes precomputed attacks less effective.

Can I use the generated hash in production?

The result can be used for testing, but production password hashing should be performed inside the trusted application backend with reviewed parameters.
