Title doesn't really explains it, a bit more details would be great.
Are you looking for a website that hashes your string into sha512, or are you looking for a CC api?
If you're just looking for a site, Creator (as much as Google) has your back, however there are no sha512 api for CC that I know of, though there is one for sha256 here which is as secure as sha512.
Edit: I tried to make a sha512 variant of that API, however numbers gets too big for CC, so that's a no go :/

... you keep saying that, as if it's not possible to write your own handler...

Well yeah I know it's possible to write a BigInt or some other handler, I guess I'm just too minded by the fact that using it will cause a noticeable performance drop.
