Thanks for the reply! I came across this article and read it: https://www.thesslstore.com/blog/difference-encryption-hashing-salting/

From my IT Director days I understand the concepts and the theory that hashing is quantum resistant. I suppose that’s because the hashing is comparing authenticity vs actual data?

However like the article points out, even Google broke SHA-1

Theoretically SHA-2(56) is significantly less hackable…but if “256 bit encryption” becomes vulnerable via Quantum Computing, why wouldn’t 256 bit hashing also be vulnerable?
