data-hashing.py

A .py application to hash secure user entered sensitive data or passwords using the SHA3-256 Crypto Algorithm, to make one's available online data secure & resistive against possible data breaches online.

Fetching the repo

  • Download the .zip file from here
  • Unzip/Extract the directory.
  • Open the extracted directory in VsCode or any other IDE of your choice.

How to execute

There are two ways to execute the application:

Executing .py file using Terminal

  • Open the Terminal of your choosen IDE.
  • Execute the main.py script, either by using the command:
    • py main.py (Python execution) or
    • nodemon main.py (Node/Nodemon execution)
    • (Make sure your system has Python/Node/Nodemon installed prior execution)

Executing .exe file

  • After you have extracted the zip file, open it.
  • Head towards the /dist/main/main.exe executable file location, link
  • Execute the file with double clicking it, the application will be launched.

Using the application

  • Enter your identity as asked (official/non-offcial)
  • Enter the data/password you wanna hash
  • The SHA3-256 Hash (HexCode) for the specified data will be generated

Commands

  • Press -1: to terminate the application
  • Press 0: to re-run main.py

Hashing used

  • The hash algorithm used for hashing is SHA3-256
  • It belongs to the SHA-3 Keccak hash family
  • Based on the Sponge construction of cryptographic concept.
  • A version of SHA3-256, the Keccak-256 is used in Ethereum Blockchain development.
  • The hash has been fetched via Python's hashlib library.
