Module SHA384

SHA-384 cryptographic hash algorithm.

SHA-384 belongs to the SHA-2 family of cryptographic hashes. It produces the 384 bit digest of a message.

>>> from Crypto.Hash import SHA384
>>>
>>> h = SHA384.new()
>>> h.update(b'Hello')
>>> print h.hexdigest()

SHA stands for Secure Hash Algorithm.

Classes
  SHA384Hash
Class that implements a SHA-384 hash
Functions
 
new(data=None)
Return a fresh instance of the hash object.
Variables
  digest_size = 48
The size of the resulting hash in bytes.
Function Details

new(data=None)

 
Return a fresh instance of the hash object.
Parameters:
  • data (byte string) - The very first chunk of the message to hash. It is equivalent to an early call to SHA384Hash.update(). Optional.
Returns:
A SHA384Hash object
