RIPEMD was based upon the design principles used in MD4, and is similar in performance to the more popular SHA-1. . RIPEMD-160 is an improved, 160-bit version of the original RIPEMD, and the most common version in the family. RIPEMD-160 was designed in the open academic community, in contrast to the NSA-designed SHA-1 and SHA-2 algorithms. . Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.
