The ssdeep project page describes it as a library for "...computing context
|
|
triggered piecewise hashes (CTPH). Also called fuzzy hashes, CTPH can match
|
|
inputs that have homologies. Such inputs have sequences of identical bytes in
|
|
the same order, although bytes in between these sequences may be different in
|
|
both content and length".
