When to Use (and When NOT To)
| Use For | NEVER Use For |
|---|---|
| File checksums | Passwords |
| Cache keys | Security signatures |
| Deduplication | Digital certificates |
| Non-security IDs | Anything security-related |
Heads Up
MD5 was broken in 2004. Researchers created two different files with identical MD5 hashes. For anything security-related, use SHA-256.
