The FIPS PUB 180-2 standard specifies four secure hash algorithms (SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-384 and SHA-512) for computing a condensed representation of electronic data (message). When a message of any length < 2^^64 bits (for SHA-1 and SHA-256) or < 2^^128 bits (for SHA-384 and SHA-512) is input to an algorithm, the result is an output called a message digest. The message digests range in length from 160 to 512 bits, depending on the algorithm. Secure hash algorithms are typically used with other cryptographic algorithms, such as digital signature algorithms and keyed-hash message authentication codes, or in the generation of random numbers (bits).
The four hash algorithms specified in this "SHS" standard are called secure because, for a given algorithm, it is computationally infeasible 1) to find a message that corresponds to a given message digest, or 2) to find two different messages that produce the same message digest. Any change to a message will, with a very high probability, result in a different message digest. This will result in a verification failure when the secure hash algorithm is used with a digital signature algorithm or a keyed-hash message authentication algorithm.
A "SHS change notice" adds a SHA-224 algorithm for interoperability, which, like SHA-1 and SHA-256, operates on 512-bit blocks and 32-bit words, but truncates the final digest and uses distinct initialization values.

Constructor Details
SHA1
public SHA1()Creates a SHA1 object with default initial state.Performance Note: For optimal performance, use
getInstance()instead of direct construction.getInstance()will return the JVM's native MessageDigest implementation if it's faster than the local implementation.- See Also:
Method Details
getInstance
Returns the fastest available SHA-1 MessageDigest implementation.This method automatically selects between the local SHA1 implementation and the JVM's native MessageDigest based on performance characteristics. On most systems, the JVM's native implementation is preferred for speed.
- Returns:
- fastest digest, either new SHA1() or a
MessageDigestfor "SHA-1"
clone
Copy this SHA-1 object.- Overrides:
clonein classMessageDigest- Returns:
- a copy with its own pad buffer
- Throws:
CloneNotSupportedException
engineGetDigestLength
public int engineGetDigestLength()Returns the digest length in bytes.Can be used to allocate your own output buffer when computing multiple digests.
Overrides the protected abstract method of
java.security.MessageDigestSpi.- Overrides:
engineGetDigestLengthin classMessageDigestSpi- Returns:
- the digest length in bytes.
engineReset
protected void engineReset()Reset and then initialize the digest context.Overrides the protected abstract method of
java.security.MessageDigestSpi.- Specified by:
engineResetin classMessageDigestSpi
init
protected void init()Initialize the digest context.engineUpdate
public void engineUpdate(byte input) Updates the digest using the specified byte. Requires internal buffering, and may be slow.Overrides the protected abstract method of java.security.MessageDigestSpi.
- Specified by:
engineUpdatein classMessageDigestSpi- Parameters:
input- the byte to use for the update.
engineUpdate
public void engineUpdate(byte[] input, int offset, int len) Updates the digest using the specified array of bytes, starting at the specified offset.Input length can be any size. May require internal buffering, if input blocks are not multiple of 64 bytes.
Overrides the protected abstract method of java.security.MessageDigestSpi.
- Specified by:
engineUpdatein classMessageDigestSpi- Parameters:
input- the array of bytes to use for the update.offset- the offset to start from in the array of bytes.len- the number of bytes to use, starting at offset.
engineDigest
public byte[] engineDigest()Completes the hash computation by performing final operations such as padding. Computes the final hash and returns the final value as a byte[20] array. Once engineDigest has been called, the engine will be automatically reset as specified in the JavaSecurity MessageDigest specification.For faster operations with multiple digests, allocate your own array and use engineDigest(byte[], int offset, int len).
Overrides the protected abstract method of java.security.MessageDigestSpi.
- Specified by:
engineDigestin classMessageDigestSpi- Returns:
- the length of the digest stored in the output buffer.
engineDigest
Completes the hash computation by performing final operations such as padding. Once engineDigest has been called, the engine will be automatically reset (see engineReset).Overrides the protected abstract method of java.security.MessageDigestSpi.
- Overrides:
engineDigestin classMessageDigestSpi- Parameters:
hashvalue- the output buffer in which to store the digest.offset- offset to start from in the output bufferlen- number of bytes within buf allotted for the digest. Both this default implementation and the SUN provider do not return partial digests. The presence of this parameter is solely for consistency in our API's. If the value of this parameter is less than the actual digest length, the method will throw a DigestException. This parameter is ignored if its value is greater than or equal to the actual digest length.- Returns:
- the length of the digest stored in the output buffer.
- Throws:
DigestException
computeBlock
private void computeBlock(byte[] input, int offset) Updates the digest using the specified array of bytes, starting at the specified offset, but an implied length of exactly 64 bytes.Requires no internal buffering, but assumes a fixed input size, in which the required padding bytes may have been added.
- Parameters:
input- the array of bytes to use for the update.offset- the offset to start from in the array of bytes.
