  2. Feature hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feature_hashing

    Feature hashing generally suffers from hash collision, which means that there exist pairs of different tokens with the same hash: ′, = (′) =. A machine learning model trained on feature-hashed words would then have difficulty distinguishing t {\displaystyle t} and t ′ {\displaystyle t'} , essentially because v {\displaystyle v} is polysemic .

  3. Hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_function

    A universal hashing scheme is a randomized algorithm that selects a hash function h among a family of such functions, in such a way that the probability of a collision of any two distinct keys is 1/m, where m is the number of distinct hash values desired—independently of the two keys. Universal hashing ensures (in a probabilistic sense) that ...

  4. Tokenization (data security) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tokenization_(data_security)

    As a security best practice, [47] independent assessment and validation of any technologies used for data protection, including tokenization, must be in place to establish the security and strength of the method and implementation before any claims of privacy compliance, regulatory compliance, and data security can be made. This validation is ...

  5. Salt (cryptography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salt_(cryptography)

    The salt and hash are then stored in the database. To later test if a password a user enters is correct, the same process can be performed on it (appending that user's salt to the password and calculating the resultant hash): if the result does not match the stored hash, it could not have been the correct password that was entered.

  6. Universal hashing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_hashing

    The state of the art for hashing integers is the multiply-shift scheme described by Dietzfelbinger et al. in 1997. [8] By avoiding modular arithmetic, this method is much easier to implement and also runs significantly faster in practice (usually by at least a factor of four [9]).

  8. Cryptographic hash function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryptographic_hash_function

    A cryptographic hash function must be able to withstand all known types of cryptanalytic attack. In theoretical cryptography, the security level of a cryptographic hash function has been defined using the following properties: Pre-image resistance Given a hash value h, it should be difficult to find any message m such that h = hash(m).

  9. File verification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_verification

    As of 2012, best practice recommendations is to use SHA-2 or SHA-3 to generate new file integrity digests; and to accept MD5 and SHA-1 digests for backward compatibility if stronger digests are not available. The theoretically weaker SHA-1, the weaker MD5, or much weaker CRC were previously commonly used for file integrity checks.
