Integrity

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function#Verifying_the_integrity_of_messages_and_files

An important application of secure hashes is verification of message integrity. Comparing message digests (hash digests over the message) calculated before, and after, transmission can determine whether any changes have been made to the message or file.

MD5? Seriously? That's like using a cardboard shield against a cannon. SHA2 is the way to go if you want something truly collision-resistant.

Collision resistance, huh? Sounds like a wrestling move I'd want to avoid in the ring! But for a hash function, gotta go with the big guns - SHA2 all the way!

I'm not sure, but I think MD5 is also considered to have some collision resistance.

I agree with Dahlia, SHA2 is known for its strong collision resistance.
