WHAT IS A HASHING ALGORITHM A SHA-224

The SHA-224 (Secure Hash Algorithm 224) hash is one of the cryptographic hashing algorithms that is part of the SHA-2 family of algorithms. The SHA-224 hash takes a message of arbitrary length as input and returns a fixed hash code of 224 bits (28 bytes) in length.

The SHA-224 hash was developed by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in 2004. This algorithm is more secure than its predecessor SHA-1 because it uses a longer hash length and a more complex hashing algorithm. However, like all hashing algorithms, SHA-224 can be prone to collision attacks, so it is recommended to use longer hashes like SHA-256 or SHA-512 to improve security.
