Welcome to Initial Release - Version 1.0.0
Release Date: April 7, 2025
Author: ProgrammerKR
Repository: Hashium on GitHub
Overview
Hashium is a custom hashing algorithm developed as an advanced and secure evolution of the HashX library. Built entirely in Python, Hashium offers enhanced security, flexibility, and speed. Designed for developers seeking a robust alternative to traditional hashing algorithms, Hashium introduces new cryptographic patterns and customizable features.
Features
- Custom Hashing Algorithm (independent of MD5, SHA, etc.)
- Fully open-source and MIT Licensed
- Hash generation from strings, files, or byte inputs
- Multiple encoding formats (hex, base64, binary, etc.)
- Salting and peppering support
- Strong one-way encryption
- Collision resistance improvements over traditional methods
- Lightweight and fast
- Easy integration with Python projects
