SHA-384 Generator

SHA-384 is a member of the SHA-2 family, defined in FIPS PUB 180-4. It is computed using the same algorithm as SHA-512 but with a different initialization vector and output truncated to 384 bits (48 bytes), represented as a 96-character hexadecimal string. SHA-384 is particularly important for web security as it is one of three hash algorithms approved for Subresource Integrity (SRI) — the browser security feature that ensures CDN-hosted JavaScript and CSS files have not been tampered with. When you add an integrity="sha384-..." attribute to a script tag, the browser verifies the resource hash before executing it. SHA-384 is also mandated in several government and compliance frameworks as a NIST-approved algorithm.
