Hashing
  • A mathematical process that, when applied to a bit string of any length, produces a value of a fixed length called the hash. Hashes are one-way functions.
  • Iterative process that computes a value (referred to as a hashword) from a particular data unit in a manner that, when a hashword is protected, manipulation of the data is detectable.
