MessageDigest md = MessageDigest.getInstance("MD5");
byte[] hash = md.digest("Hello World".getBytes());

FAQ

What is MD5?

MD5 (Message-Digest Algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function that produces a 128-bit (16-byte) hash value, typically expressed as a 32-digit hexadecimal number. It is commonly used to verify data integrity and file checksums.

Is MD5 reversible?

No, MD5 is a one-way hash function. You cannot retrieve the original text from the hash. However, MD5 is vulnerable to collision attacks and should not be used for security-critical applications.

Is MD5 secure for passwords?

No, MD5 is considered cryptographically broken and should not be used for security-critical applications like password hashing. Use SHA-256, bcrypt, or Argon2 instead. MD5 is still useful for non-security purposes like file integrity checks and data verification.
