MD5 - algoritmo resumen

Algoritmo diseñado por Ron Rivest (autor de la RC-2, RC-4 y RC-5 y uno de los coautores del RSA). Producen un resume de 128 bits del mensaje.

Diseñado como una mejora del algoritmo MD4, respecto del cual es más lento; pero más seguro.

Inspirador del algoritmo SHA1.

(en) MD5

(N) A cryptographic hash [R1321] that produces a 128-bit hash result and was designed by Ron Rivest to be an improved version of MD4. (See: Derivation under "MD2".) [RFC4949:2007]

MD5 (Message-Digest algorithm 5) is a widely used cryptographic hash function with a 128-bit hash value. As an Internet standard (RFC 1321), MD5 has been employed in a wide variety of security applications, and is also commonly used to check the integrity of files. An MD5 hash is typically a 32-character hexadecimal number. Recently, a number of projects have created MD5 "rainbow tables" which are easily accessible online, and can be used to reverse many MD5 strings into their original meanings.
