Instructions

Research and identify what are the different types of hash values. Then tell me, what is the recommended hash value and WHY (and see if you can find case law supporting this!)

Value of this assignment

When you lead an investigation then it is important for you to be comfortable with the different types of hash values as well as knowing what hash value your tool (hardware or software) will provide. 

Knowing all this is helpful as part of your courtroom experience and/or if you want to cross-examine the forensic specialist.

Format

Please provide me your analysis in a 1-page document.
