RIPEMD320 generator

Our RIPEMD320 Generator creates a 320-bit (40-byte) cryptographic hash from any input text, producing an 80-character hexadecimal string. As the strongest variant in the RIPEMD family developed at the COSIC research group at KU Leuven, RIPEMD320 offers maximum security within this algorithm family. It provides an interesting alternative to the more common SHA algorithms, using a different cryptographic approach while delivering strong collision resistance. This hash function illustrates how different design philosophies can achieve similar cryptographic goals. The tool is particularly valuable for security researchers studying diverse hash function implementations, cryptographers comparing algorithm performance and properties, and developers working with specialized systems that specifically implement RIPEMD320 for technical or academic purposes.
