Which AccessData feature compares known file hash values to files on your evidence drive or image files to see whether they contain suspicious data?Chapter 6-13 multiple choice. What hashing algorithms can be used to verify digital evidence?Most digital extraction tool use either MD5 (Message Digest) or SHA (Secured Hash Algorithm) hashing to check the integrity of digital evidence. The hashing algorithm has been found to have a weakness known as collision in which two different messages have the same hashing values.
Which hashing algorithm is provided by WinHex?WinHex can calculate several kinds of hash values of any file, disk, partition, or any part of a disk, even 256-bit digests, for the most suspicious ones. In particular, the MD5 message digest algorithm (128-bit) is incorporated, which produces commonly used unique numeric identifiers (hash values).
What is a hash value in forensics?Hash values are used to identify and filter duplicate files (i.e. email, attachments, and loose files) from an ESI collection or verify that a forensic image or clone was captured successfully. Each hashing algorithm uses a specific number of bytes to store a “ thumbprint” of the contents.
