What is a digital fingerprint?
Digital fingerprint is a security measure used to protect multimedia files and information. Usually it is a coded string of binary digits that creates a unique identity for the file. Binary digits in the coded string are created by mathematical algorithm. Digital fingerprint can also be used to create user IDs in networks, monitor user activity, and user blocking in access to certain information or certain websites on the Internet.
One of the main reasons for digital fingerprints is information protection and ensuring that information and transmitted messages are not manipulated. Currently, packets of information are essential for everyday life - especially information that is transmitted by technological devices such as computers, mobile phones and PDA. From personal e -mail accounts to government websites, the transfer of information in digital regime is part of everyday life and important for the current way of life, especially in developedChildren. Therefore, the information must be protected and therefore the use of a digital fingerprint.
as well as a real fingerprint of a human being cannot be re -established by a digital fingerprint. If the file is manipulated, even in terms of changing a single character, the digital fingerprint will change. This is essential because there are many files that rely on the exact specificity of each character. If a digital fingerprint is manipulated, the owner or user of the file can be alerted so that the file can be used with caution or the original version of the file can be obtained.
In addition to the digital fingerprints used to protect the information and block users from accessing specific information, there are also digitized versions of the fingerprints. In some highly secure areas, the entry can only be obtained through biometric information -detention. BiometRic information, such as digitized fingerprints, can be used to ensure that only authorized people enter or have access to certain areas or information.
This kind of digital fingerprint is created by scanning and creating a digital identity for a person who has access to a particular location or set of information. Once this identity and access to access are created, the person must push the finger on the scanner on the occasion of accessing these information or location. Since every analog fingerprint is unique, it is also every digital fingering finger that is made using an analog fingerprint.
