Description
The Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1) generates a 160-bit (20-hex-digit) message digest for a given message
(String) of < 2^32 bytes length. It is considered secure because it is computationally infeasible to
find a message which corresponds to a given message digest, or to find two different messages which
produce the same message digest. SHA-1 is used by both the transmitter and intended receiver of a
message in computing and verifying a digital signature.
The most common Internet use of the SHA algorithm is to create a hashed version of a password for
storage in a database. This means that if the security of the database is compromised, the user passwords
are still not available; only the hashed password is visible. AKsha-1 can be called from any valid ActiveX
container, such as Visual Basic, ASP, ColdFusion, Visual C++ or Microsoft Office.

Documentation
ASP Utilization
Dim objHash,strHash
set objHash = server.CreateObject ("Hash.SHA")
strHash = objHash.SHA("myPassword")
Response.Write("The Hashed password is: " & strHash & "<br>")
set objHash = nothing
Visual Basic Utilization
(1) Add the appropriate references to the DLL (hash)
(2) Add the following code:
Dim strHash as String
Dim objHash as SHA
set objHash = new SHA
strHash = objHash.SHA("myPasswordString")
msgBox("The hash value: " & strHash)
set objHash = nothing
