> So SHA256/SHA384/SHA512 are not independant of eachother? Depends. SHA224 uses the same algorithm as SHA256 but with different init constants witch initiates 8 32-bit state variables and output (8 32-bit state variables after transformations) is truncated to 224 bytes. SHA384 uses the same algorithm as SHA512 but with different init constants witch initiates 8 64-bit state variables and output (8 64-bit state variables after transformations) is truncated to 384 bytes.
