Cryptoghraphy Hashing Hashing is the process of converting plaintext into chipertext. One of the advantage of  hashing is, its  almost impossible to alter. Even if the intruder succeeded in altering the data the receiver will definitely know on receiving the message. Hashing can be seen as a one way encryption process. Its main aim is to confirm the authenticity of data. Hashing output is known as hash, hash value or message digest. How it work When you are sending the message, you will create an encryption with your private key using a particular type of hashing which we will talk about shortly. It will then create gabbled messages which is fixed length and exactly the length of the message. Bundles the chipertext with the plaintext together which are both encrypted.
