NTLM (NT LAN Manager) uses the MD4 hash algorithm for hashing passwords. When a user sets a password, NTLM computes an MD4 hash of the UTF-16LE encoded password. This hash is then stored in the Security Account Manager (SAM) database. However, due to its vulnerabilities, NTLM is considered weak and has largely been replaced by more secure authentication protocols like Kerberos.

Which is more secure an LM hash or an NTLM hash?

NTLM Hash is more secure than LM Hash. It was actually replaced by Windows with NTLM. NTLM is case sensitive; so it matters how passwords are typed, its character set is 65,535, and it does not limit stored passwords to two 7- character parts. NTLM is considered a much stronger hashing algorithm. Just make sure passwords stored are more than 14 characters and you will be fine. Now Unix and Linux are probably a more stable OS because they use "salt" Windows LM and NTLM does not.

How many bits are used in these algorithms hash values?

The number of bits used in hash values varies by algorithm. For example, the MD5 algorithm produces a 128-bit hash, SHA-1 generates a 160-bit hash, and SHA-256 outputs a 256-bit hash. Each algorithm is designed to provide a different level of security and collision resistance, with longer hashes generally offering greater security.
