!!! Overview[1]
[{$pagename}] is a term used for [SHA-1] having a [Cryptographic Collision]
[Cryptographic Hash Functions] like [SHA-1] are a cryptographer’s swiss army knife.
[Cryptographic Hash Functions] play a role in [browser] security, managing code repositories, or even just detecting duplicate files in storage. [Cryptographic Hash Functions] compress large amounts of data into a small [Message-Digest].
As a [cryptographic] requirement for wide-spread use, finding two messages that lead to the same [Message-Digest] should be computationally infeasible. Over time however, this requirement can fail due to attacks on the mathematical underpinnings of [Cryptographic Hash Functions] or to increases in computational power.!! More Information
