Microsoft originally used PhotoDNA on its own services including Bing and OneDrive. [31] As of 2022, PhotoDNA was widely used by online service providers for their content moderation efforts [10] [32] [33] including Google's Gmail, Twitter, [34] Facebook, [35] Adobe Systems, [36] Reddit, [37] and Discord.
Data Protection Application Programming Interface (DPAPI) is a simple cryptographic application programming interface available as a built-in component in Windows 2000 and later versions of Microsoft Windows operating systems. In theory, the Data Protection API can enable symmetric encryption of any kind of data; in practice, its primary use in ...
Non-cryptographic hash functions optimized for software frequently involve the multiplication operation. Since in-hardware multiplication is resource-intensive and frequency-limiting, ASIC-friendlier designs had been proposed, including SipHash (which has an additional benefit of being able to use a secret key for message authentication), NSGAhash, and XORhash.
The MD5 hash functions as a compact digital fingerprint of a file. As with all such hashing algorithms, there is theoretically an unlimited number of files that will have any given MD5 hash. However, it is very unlikely that any two non-identical files in the real world will have the same MD5 hash, unless they have been specifically created to ...
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.
HashKeeper compares hash values of known to be good files against the hash values of files on a computer system. Where those values match "known to be good" files, the examiner can say, with substantial certainty, that the corresponding files on the computer system have been previously identified as known to be good and therefore do not need to ...
A technical summary document, which nicely explains the system with copious diagrams and example photographs, offers that "Instead of scanning images [on corporate] iCloud [servers], the system performs on-device matching using a database of known CSAM image hashes provided by [the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children] (NCMEC) and ...
Although the RDS hashset contains some malicious software (such as steganography and hacking tools) it does not contain illicit material (e.g. indecent images). The collection of original software media is maintained in order to provide repeatability of the calculated hash values, ensuring admissibility of this data in court.
