FIELD NOTES / 005

Verify bytes, not appearances.

A cryptographic hash is a compact fingerprint. The same input produces the same digest; changing even one byte produces a different result.

Good to know

Is a hash encryption?

No. Hashing is one-way and cannot recover the original input. Do not use a plain hash to store passwords.

Does my file get uploaded?

No. The browser reads and hashes it locally with Web Crypto.
