Description

Unknown hash strings can be compared against known formats to suggest what algorithm or password-hash scheme may have produced them.

It is useful for security auditing, migrations, forensics, and debugging legacy authentication data. Identification is only a guess based on patterns, so do not make password-storage or incident-response decisions from this result alone.
