What is SHA-512/224 (FIPS 180-4)?

SHA-512/224 (FIPS 180-4) is a SHA-2 cryptographic hash function that outputs a 224-bit (28-byte) digest, typically rendered as a 56-character hexadecimal string. It is based on SHA-512 with different initial values and a truncated output, providing a shorter digest while keeping SHA-512’s internal structure.

Key characteristics:

  • Deterministic: The same input always produces the same hash
  • Fast computation: Quick to compute for any given input
  • Avalanche effect: Small changes in input produce drastically different outputs
  • Irreversible: Computationally infeasible to reverse the hash to find the original input
  • Collision resistant: Very difficult to find two different inputs that produce the same hash

Common uses:

  • Digital signatures and certificates
  • Integrity checks and checksums
  • HMAC constructions
  • File verification and data pipelines
  • Protocols that require 224-bit hashes
