More about the HMAC Generator

A plain hash only proves a piece of content hasn't changed, but it doesn't prove who actually generated it, which is exactly the gap HMAC closes by mixing in a secret key known only to the sender and the receiver, the same mechanism a webhook signature header relies on to prove a payload genuinely came from the expected service rather than being forged by someone else entirely. This tool generates an HMAC digest from text using SHA-256, SHA-1, or MD5 combined with a secret key, producing the same value a legitimate sender's signing process would. Useful for verifying that a webhook's signature header actually matches what a shared secret would produce, generating a signed payload for an API that requires HMAC authentication, or confirming two systems are computing the same signature from the same secret key.
