EasyHash is a custom-designed 128-bit cryptographic hashing algorithm developed for educational purposes. This project aims to demonstrate the fundamental principles of hash functions, including data integrity verification, deterministic output generation, and resistance to basic collision attacks. While not intended for production-level security, EasyHash serves as a learning tool for understanding hash mechanics, bitwise operations, and cryptographic concepts.
Demonstrating how hash functions process variable-length input into fixed-length output.
Comparing performance and properties against established algorithms.
Experimenting with custom modifications (e.g., adjusting rounds, mixing operations).
Disclaimer: EasyHash is not suitable for real-world cryptographic applications due to its simplified design and lack of rigorous security analysis. For secure hashing, use industry-standard algorithms like SHA-256 or SHA-3.
from easyhash import easyhash_hex, easyhash
# Store simple data as hello world text
data = b"hello world!"
# Get the hexdigest hash
hash_ = easyhash_hex(data)
print(f"hash : {hash_}")
This is not a cryptographically secure hashing function. It’s built for speed and uniqueness, not encryption or authentication.
⚠️ Note: EasyHash is not secure for real-world cryptography. Use it for learning, testing, or prototyping—not for sensitive data!
✔ 128-bit output → Fixed 32-character hexadecimal hash. ✔ Deterministic → Same input = same output, every time. ✔ Educational → Clean, readable code for studying hash mechanics. ✔ Customizable → Easy to modify (rounds, bit ops, mixing functions).
DO NOT USE FOR SECURITY! EasyHash lacks: ❌ Cryptographic analysis → No resistance to advanced attacks. ❌ Collision guarantees → Unsuitable for checksums or authentication.
For real projects, use SHA-256, SHA-3, or BLAKE3.
