SHA stands for Secure Hash Algorithm.

SHA-0, SHA-1, and SHA-2 are currently used and well known cryptographic hash functions which are designed by the National Security Agency (NSA) and published by the NIST as a U.S. Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS).

SHA-3 will become a FIPS standard around 2012 according to NIST.gov
