Automated Checksum Verification: Ensuring File Integrity
Automated Checksum Verification is a free Chrome extension developed by ISPLab @ UNIL. It falls under the category of Browsers and is specifically classified as an Add-ons & Tools subcategory.
This extension is designed to ensure the integrity of potentially dangerous files. It offers an automated checksum verification feature that alerts users in case of a potential mismatch between the computed checksum from the downloaded file and the checksum(s) available on the website from where the file is being downloaded. By comparing these checksums, users can determine if the file they have downloaded is unaltered and safe to use.
With Automated Checksum Verification, users can have peace of mind knowing that the files they download are authentic and have not been tampered with. This extension adds an extra layer of security to the browsing experience, particularly when dealing with potentially dangerous files.
