: Use a reputable antivirus or upload the hash to a threat intelligence database to see if it matches known indicators of compromise (IoCs) [4].
: Security researchers and platforms like VirusTotal use hashes to uniquely identify malware samples. This prevents naming conflicts and allows researchers to quickly check if a specific file has been analyzed before [3, 4].
