Some of the projects that use MD5 as the default method for storing user passwords include WordPress, osCommerce, SuiteCRM, miniBB, SugarCRM, CMS Made Simple, MantisBT, Phorum, Observium, and X3cms.

Are you in any way interested in checking the MD5 hash numbers of files on Windows 11/10 computers? If that’s a yes, then you need the help from a decent enough MD5 Hash Checker. What we’re going to ...

Apple is reportedly developing a tool that would scan for child sexual abuse material (CSAM) in your iPhone photos using hashing algorithms. The system is said to be deployed on the user’s device for ...

Okay I admit it, sometimes I’ve been guilty of using the MD5 hashing algorithm in my code simply because it’s easily available in Java, it’s convenient and familiar, and I implicitly trust it. (Jeez, ...

The good news is that most CA’s now use SHA-1 as their hash algorithm, but there are still a few CA’s that use MD5. But what I thought was a funny tidbit about the hack is that the researchers ...

My company has a small team of software developers, who program applications for the business. Nothing too fancy. Sometimes the applications they produce are meant only for system-to-system ...
