Comparative Study of MD5 and SHA Security Algorithm

Authors: Abhishek.B.N

Security algorithms enables secure communication between two parties in the presence of a third-Party or a snooper. It guarantees the recipient of the message of the genuineness of the received message, protects the message against the unauthorized release of the message content by the third party, only authorized users can access the data. MD5 and (SHA), cryptographic hash algorithms are one-way hashing functions which are easier to compute/convert but are much harder to reverse and would take around millions of years to compute the authentic message content. This research paper analyses the two hash algorithms, MD5 and SHA, using various key features. Their features have also been highlighted in order to provide a better comparison picture so that they can understand which algorithm has superseded the other.
