Hash Verification Lab

File integrity and repeatable verification with hashes.

This lab focuses on proving whether a file has changed by comparing cryptographic hashes. It’s a basic concept, but it shows a real forensics skill: validating integrity with evidence you can repeat.

What I practiced

  • Generating hashes and documenting results
  • Comparing “before vs after” changes
  • Keeping notes so someone else could reproduce the verification

Tools

  • PowerShell (Get-FileHash)
  • Windows file system basics

Write-up (how I’ll expand this)

I’ll keep adding screenshots/outputs and a clearer step-by-step as I publish each lab artifact. This page is the permanent “home” for the lab.
