ommended Secure Coding Practices</h2>
<p>Safer alternatives, such as <code>SHA-256</code>, <code>SHA-512</code>, <code>SHA-3</code> are recommended, and for password hashing, it’s even
better to use algorithms that do not compute too "quickly", like <code>bcrypt</code>, <code>scrypt</code>, <code>argon2</code> or <code>pbkdf2</code>
because it slows down <code>brute force attacks</code>.</p>
<h2>Sensitive Code Example</h2>

val md1: MessageDigest = MessageDigest.getInstance("SHA");  // Sensitive:  SH
