Areas in which MD5 will no longer be available are the following:

Benefits

  • Keeping up to date with technical security advancements.
  • Increasing the security for authentication and removing potential security breaches.
  • Secure and robust while being compatible with the existing algorithms in terms of the number of bits and representation size​
