message digest

Term · Cybersecurity · MLC-T-CYB-002660

1. The result of applying a hash function to a message. Also known as a “hash value.”

2. The result of applying a hash function to a message. Also known as a "hash value."

3. The result of applying a hash function to a message. Also known as a “hash value” or “hash output”.

4. The result of applying a hash function to data.

5. The result of applying a cryptographic hash function to data (e.g., a message). Also known as a “message digest”.

6. See “Hash value”.

7. See “message digest”.

8. the fixed size result of hashing a message.

9. The fixed-length bit string produced by a hash function.

10. The result of applying a hash function to information.

11. A hash that uniquely identifies data. Changing a single bit in the data stream used to generate the message digest will yield a completely different message digest.

12. A digital signature that uniquely identifies data and has the property that changing a single bit in the data will cause a completely different message digest to be generated.

13. See message digest.

14. The result of applying a hash function to information; also called a message digest.

15. See hash value.

16. A crytpographic checksum, typically generated for a file that can be used to detect changes to the file.. Synonyous with hash value/result.

17. The result of applying a hash function to a message

18. A digital signature that uniquely identifes data and has the property that changing a single bit in the data will cause a completely different message diges to be generated.

19. See Digital Fingerprint

20. See Hash digest.

21. The result of applying a hash function to a message.
