It also has a smaller output size while SHA3 may have the same output size as SHA2. The main differences between the older SHA-256 of the SHA-2 family of FIPS 180, and the newer SHA3-256 of the SHA-3 family of FIPS 202, are: Resistance to length extension attacks. With SHA-256, given H(m) H (m) but not m m, it is easy to find H(m∥m′) H (m ...

It's statistically impossible that a sha256 collision has happened by accident. – James Roper. Oct 26, 2023 at 1:58. It is a lot more possible that the same hash has been calculated twice from different data than the second key actually being found.
SHA-256d(x) = SHA-256(SHA-256(x)) Apparently, the motivation for this construction is to avoid length extension attacks. Incidentally, SHA-256d is the hash function forming the core of Bitcoin. According to the comment on the answer linked above, "some minor weaknesses" are known in SHA-256d.
$\begingroup$ @Geremia SHA-256 supports inputs up to $2^{64}-1$ bits in length; then you add $64$ inputs because you need to know how long the message actually is (an input to a Boolean formula can only be 1 or 0, and so you need to supply both enough inputs for any SHA-256 input and enough inputs for the length of the SHA-256 input, which is ...
The reason to use SHA-256 is to generate a semi-unique value for a large input that cannot be converted back to the original value. This means that the encoding of the data should be unique as well; this is called a canonical encoding. One example of this is ASN.1/DER, which is used to sign the X5.09 certificates used in your web browser.
12. SHA-256 is a relatively poor way to store passwords but it is considered to be pretty much impossible to "crack". That is, retrieve the original plaintext from the hash. The reason it is poor to use for passwords, especially without a salt, is due to the fact that it is inexpensive to compute, thus more vulnerable to brute force and rainbow ...
the hash is S[] S [] with each 32-bit register expressed per big-endian binary, forming a 256-bit bitstring. I made the 50% solution take the lost round and find a,b,c,d,e,f,g, values in working variables but idont know how to find 'h' value still now iam trying to find out because h value and message shedule chunk ('word'64bit) that is w0 to ...
Sorted by: SHA3-256 this means the hash will be of 256 bits in length. Is this correct? Yes, that is correct - exactly the same as SHA2-256 means that hash has an output of 256 bits. But, then, what does the 256 mean for the XOF SHAKE256? Obviously, that's not the output length (that's up to the application). Instead, it is the security level.
SHA-512 has 25% more rounds than SHA-256. On a 64-bit processor each round takes the same amount of operations, yet can process double the data per round, because the instructions process 64-bit words instead of 32-bit words. Therefore, 2 / 1.25 = 1.6, which is how much faster SHA-512 can be under optimal conditions.
