What is an MD5 hash?
MD5 produces a 128-bit fingerprint of data. It converts any string into a fixed-length hash that cannot be easily reversed.
Why MD5 is insecure
Advances in computing allow attackers to create collisions and rainbow tables, making MD5 unsuitable for protecting sensitive data.
Can MD5 be decrypted?
MD5 itself cannot be mathematically reversed, but matches can be found by comparing hashes against large databases of known values.
What this tool actually does
This tool searches curated hash databases for your MD5 string and returns the original text if a match exists.
Use cases
Recover forgotten strings, validate leaked datasets, or conduct security research in controlled environments.
Legal disclaimer
Decrypting hashes without permission may be illegal. Use this tool responsibly and only on data you own or are authorized to test.
