Question 5

Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-256) output is always 256 bits or 32 bytes in length regardless of the length of the input (even if input is millions of bytes). Select best answer.

    Correct Answer: D

    Secure Hash Algorithm 256 (SHA-256) always produces an output of 256 bits, or 32 bytes, irrespective of the length of the input data. This property is fundamental to how SHA-256 functions, making it a reliable algorithm for ensuring data integrity and security. Regardless of whether the input is a few bytes or millions of bytes, the hash value it generates will always be the fixed size of 256 bits.
