Task 1: Investigating Hashing software and the basic usage (total 9 marks)
In this task, you need to find three hashing identify software or utilities regardless MS Windows and/or Linux platforms these tools can run on and provide three quick samples or procedures or steps that to show how to use this three software or utilities to identify a hash string. Three (3) marks for each software or utility named and a sample of how to identify a hash string. You can use MD5, SHA varieties or a hash string at your choice.
Deliverable: Three software or utility named and provided details of how to identify a hash string from each of software or utilities. Provide figure number and a short description for each snapshot. All three software or utilities need at least a reliable reference for each.
First is hash-identifier which will analysis your hash and output with the relevant hash
Second is hashtag which is built in python and we have to download using gitclone as shown here
Third is hashid which is builtin tool which will analyse and report on screen of releted hash algo
