X509Certificate.prototype.fingerprint512 - crypto - Node documentation
property X509Certificate.prototype.fingerprint512

Usage in Deno

import { X509Certificate } from "node:crypto";

The SHA-512 fingerprint of this certificate.

Because computing the SHA-256 fingerprint is usually faster and because it is only half the size of the SHA-512 fingerprint, x509.fingerprint256 may be a better choice. While SHA-512 presumably provides a higher level of security in general, the security of SHA-256 matches that of most algorithms that are commonly used to sign certificates.
