Bcrypt Hash Generator (SHA-256 Demo)
Enter a password to generate a SHA-256 hash using the Web Crypto API. Note: This is a simplified demonstration. For production password storage, use server-side bcrypt with proper salting and rounds.
Real bcrypt is computationally intensive and designed to be slow to protect against brute-force attacks. This tool uses SHA-256 for a quick, client-side hashing example.
Bcrypt Hash Generator
Bcrypt is one of the most secure ways to hash passwords. Unlike plain hashing (like MD5 or SHA-1), bcrypt adds a random salt and uses a work factor, making it much harder for attackers to crack with brute force.
Why Use Bcrypt?
- Protects passwords even if your database is leaked.
- Automatically adds a unique salt to every password.
- Intentionally slow, which makes brute-force attacks expensive.
How to Use This Tool
- Enter your password or text in the input box.
- Click "Generate Hash" to create a bcrypt hash.
- Copy the result and use it in your application.
Example:
$2a$10$eImiTXuWVxfM37uY4JANjQ==...
Note: This tool is for learning and testing. For real applications, always hash passwords server-side using official libraries (e.g., bcrypt.js, bcrypt in Python, or PHP’s password_hash).
