GOST (GOST R 34.11-94) is a Russian cryptographic hash function standard. It produces a 256-bit (32-byte) hash value, typically expressed as a 64-character hexadecimal number. GOST is based on the GOST block cipher.
GOST hash algorithm is primarily used in Russian cryptographic applications and standards:
| Application | Usage |
|---|---|
| Russian government applications | Official cryptographic standard in Russia |
| Digital signatures | Used in GOST R 34.10-94 digital signature standard |
| Security protocols | Used in various Russian security protocols and systems |
| Algorithm | Output Size | Security Status | Common Uses |
|---|---|---|---|
| GOST | 256 bits | Secure | Russian government applications |
| MD5 | 128 bits | Vulnerable | Checksums, non-crypto uses |
| SHA-1 | 160 bits | Vulnerable | Git, legacy certificates |
| SHA-256 | 256 bits | Secure | Cryptography, blockchain, certificates |
💡 GOST is a strong cryptographic hash function, especially in its updated versions. It is widely used in Russian cryptographic applications and provides a good alternative to SHA-256.
