Protocol: Hash Lookup

SHA-256 hash
reverse lookup.

Paste a SHA-256 hex digest (64 characters). We compare against rockyou and return the matching plaintext when found.

About SHA-256

SHA-256 is part of the SHA-2 family, published by NIST in 2001. It produces a 256-bit digest (64 hex characters) and remains a cryptographic workhorse — used inside TLS certificates, Bitcoin, file-integrity checks, and many modern password-hashing schemes.

As a plain hash, SHA-256 is not a password storage function: it is too fast. For passwords, always layer a slow KDF (bcrypt, scrypt, Argon2, or PBKDF2-SHA-256) on top.

Generating SHA-256 hashes

echo -n password | sha256sum -
