  2. Simple file verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_file_verification

    Simple file verification (SFV) is a file format for storing CRC32 checksums of files to verify the integrity of files. SFV is used to verify that a file has not been corrupted, but it does not otherwise verify the file's authenticity. The .sfv file extension is usually used for SFV files. [1]

  3. File verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_verification

    File verification is the process of using an algorithm for verifying the integrity of a computer file, usually by checksum. This can be done by comparing two files bit-by-bit, but requires two copies of the same file, and may miss systematic corruptions which might occur to both files.

  4. Verification and validation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verification_and_validation

    Verification is intended to check that a product, service, or system meets a set of design specifications. [6] [7] In the development phase, verification procedures involve performing special tests to model or simulate a portion, or the entirety, of a product, service, or system, then performing a review or analysis of the modeling results. In ...

  5. File integrity monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_integrity_monitoring

    File integrity monitoring (FIM) is an internal control or process that performs the act of validating the integrity of operating system and application software files using a verification method between the current file state and a known, good baseline.

  6. Checksum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Checksum

    This is especially true of cryptographic hash functions, which may be used to detect many data corruption errors and verify overall data integrity; if the computed checksum for the current data input matches the stored value of a previously computed checksum, there is a very high probability the data has not been accidentally altered or corrupted.

  7. List of file signatures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_signatures

    A file signature is data used to identify or verify the content of a file. Such signatures are also known as magic numbers or magic bytes. Many file formats are not intended to be read as text. If such a file is accidentally viewed as a text file, its contents will be unintelligible.

  8. Web of trust - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_of_trust

    Practically, to verify any downloaded or received content or data or email or file's authenticity, a user need to verify their downloaded main content or main data/email or main file's PGP/GPG signature code/file (ASC, SIG). So users would need to use original developer's or original author's trustworthy and verified public-key, or users would ...

  9. Data entry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_entry

    Data entry is the process of digitizing data by entering it into a computer system for organization and management purposes. It is a person-based process [1] and is "one of the important basic" [2] tasks needed when no machine-readable version of the information is readily available for planned computer-based analysis or processing.
