hashBlake2b()

std::array< uint8_t, 64 > ImFusion::Cryptography::hashBlake2b

(

const ByteBufferView &

message

)

Creates a 64 byte hash from a message using Blake2b.

This hashing algorithm can be considered reasonably safe for most cryptographic applications while at the same time being faster than MD5 or SHA-family of algorithms.
