File Reputation and File Analysis Reporting and Tracking
Identifying Files by SHA-256 Hash
Because filenames can easily be changed, the appliance generates an identifier for each file using a
Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-256). If an appliance processes the same file with different names, all
instances are recognized as the same SHA-256. If multiple appliances process the same file, all instances
of the file have the same SHA-256 identifier.

instances are recognized as the same SHA-256. If multiple appliances process the same file, all instances
of the file have the same SHA-256 identifier.
In most reports, files are listed by their SHA-256 value (in an abbreviated format). To identify the
filenames associated with a malware instance in your organization, select Reporting > Advanced
Malware Protection and click an SHA-256 link in the table. The details page shows associated filenames.
