Description:
BLAKE2 is a cryptographic hash function faster than MD5, SHA-1, SHA-2, and
SHA-3,
yet is at least as secure as the latest standard SHA-3.
BLAKE2 comes in two flavors:
* BLAKE2b (or just BLAKE2) is optimized for 64-bit platforms—including
NEON-enabled
ARMs—and produces digests of any size between 1 and 64 bytes
* BLAKE2s is optimized for 8- to 32-bit platforms and produces digests of any
size
between 1 and 32 bytes
BLAKE2 includes the 4-way parallel BLAKE2bp and 8-way parallel BLAKE2sp
designed
for increased performance on multicore or SIMD CPUs.
BLAKE2 offers these algorithms tuned to your specific requirements,
such as keyed hashing (that is, MAC or PRF), hashing with a salt,
updatable or incremental tree-hashing, or any combination thereof.
These versions are specified in the BLAKE2 document.
BLAKE2 also includes the BLAKE2x variants, which can produce digests of
arbitrary length. BLAKE2x is specified in a separate document.
BLAKE2 shines on 64-bit CPUs: on an Intel Core i5-6600 (Skylake
microarchitecture, 3310MHz),
BLAKE2b can process 1 gibibyte per second, or a speed rate of 3.08 cycles per
byte.
