The SHA1 (Secure Hash Algorithm 1) cryptographic hash function is now officially dead and useless, after Google announced today the first ever successful collision attack.

The proposal argued that some large organizations currently find it hard to move to a more secure hashing algorithm for their digital certificates and need the additional year to make the transition.

Ron Rivest invented the MD4 and MD5 hash functions in the early 1990s. Then the National Security Agency published a similar hash function called the Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA), followed by SHA-1 ...

Hash algorithms are used by government agencies and businesses worldwide to make online transactions secure, store passwords and verify digital files and signatures.

Microsoft plans to stop trusting Secure Hash Algorithm 1 (SHA-1) certificates next month for 'all major Microsoft processes and services,' according to a Wednesday announcement.

A cryptographic hash function combines the message-passing capabilities of hash functions with security properties. Hash functions are algorithms that determine how information is encrypted.
