At the end of 2003, Symantec acquired its largest competitor in the disk-cloning field, [citation needed] PowerQuest. On August 2, 2004, Norton GHOST 9.0 was released as a new consumer version of Ghost, which is based on PowerQuest's Drive Image version 7, and provides Live imaging of a Windows system.
SHA-3 (Secure Hash Algorithm 3) is the latest [4] member of the Secure Hash Algorithm family of standards, released by NIST on August 5, 2015. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] Although part of the same series of standards, SHA-3 is internally different from the MD5 -like structure of SHA-1 and SHA-2 .
Symantec Endpoint Protection is a security software suite that includes intrusion prevention, firewall, and anti-malware features. [11] According to SC Magazine , Endpoint Protection also has some features typical of data loss prevention software. [ 12 ]
This hash harvesting technique is more advanced than previously used techniques (e.g. dumping the local Security Accounts Manager database (SAM) using pwdump and similar tools), mainly because hash values stored in memory could include credentials of domain users (and domain administrators) that logged into the machine. For example, the hashes ...
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.
This design makes it easy to reuse Ascon in multiple ways (as a cipher, hash, or a MAC). [4] As of February 2023, the Ascon suite contained seven ciphers, [3] including: [5] Ascon-128 and Ascon-128a authenticated ciphers; Ascon-Hash cryptographic hash; Ascon-Xof extendable-output function; Ascon-80pq cipher with an "increased" 160-bit key.
In cryptography, collision resistance is a property of cryptographic hash functions: a hash function H is collision-resistant if it is hard to find two inputs that hash to the same output; that is, two inputs a and b where a ≠ b but H(a) = H(b).
This attack is normally harder, a hash of n bits can be broken in 2 (n/2)+1 time steps, but is much more powerful than a classical collision attack. Mathematically stated, given two different prefixes p 1, p 2, the attack finds two suffixes s 1 and s 2 such that hash(p 1 ∥ s 1) = hash(p 2 ∥ s 2) (where ∥ is the concatenation operation).
