hashID | hash-identifier

Software to identify the different types of hashes used to encrypt data


Identify the different types of hashes used to encrypt data and especially passwords.

This tool replaces hash-identifier, which is outdated!

hashID is a tool written in Python 3 which supports the identification of over 220 unique hash types using regular expressions. A detailed list of supported hashes can be found here.

It is able to identify a single hash, parse a file or read multiple files in a directory and identify the hashes within them. hashID is also capable of including the corresponding hashcat mode and/or JohnTheRipper format in its output.

hashID works out of the box with Python 2 ≥ 2.7.x or Python 3 ≥ 3.3 on any platform.

Note: When identifying a hash on *nix operating systems use single quotes to prevent interpolation

hashID is available on PyPi, so you can install, upgrade or uninstall with these commands:

          $ pip install hashid
          $ pip install --upgrade hashid
          $ pip uninstall hashid
