(PowerShell) Hash (Digest) a String
Hash the bytes of a string.

# Hashing algorithms (i.e. digest algorithms) operate on raw bytes.
# Therefore, we must specify the character encoding (utf-8, utf-16, iso-8859-1, etc.) to be used when hashing.
# Get the SHA256 hash in hex
$sha256_hex = $sb.GetHash("sha256","hex","utf-8")
$("SHA256: " + $sha256_hex)
# Get the SHA384 hash in hex lowercase
$sha384_hex = $sb.GetHash("sha384","hex_lower","utf-8")
$("SHA384: " + $sha384_hex)
# Get the SHA512 hash in base64
$sha512_base64 = $sb.GetHash("sha512","base64","utf-8")
$("SHA512: " + $sha512_base64)
# Get the SHA1 hash in hex lowercase
$sha1_hex = $sb.GetHash("sha1","hex_lower","utf-8")
$("SHA1: " + $sha1_hex)
# Get the CRC8 digest in decimal
$crc8_decimal = $sb.GetHash("crc8","decimal","utf-8")
$("CRC8: " + $crc8_decimal)
