Huella dactilar
Understand the basics
Although the platform should show the Versions for almost all of the contents, it’d still be possible for a system administrator to manipulate the content by editing the database directly.
Como mitigación por este riesgo, la plataforma muestra una huella dactilar para algunos campos importantes, por ejemplo, un cuerpo de propuesta y un título.
Its goal is to provide a way to give an informal "receipt" to a participant so they can detect tampering. Una huella dactilar es una representación hashada del contenido. Es útil asegurarse de que el contenido no ha sido manipulado, ya que una sola modificación resultaría en un valor totalmente diferente. It’s calculated using a SHA256 hashing algorithm. Para replicarlo usted mismo, puede utilizar calculadora MD5 en línea y copiar y pegar los datos de origen.

It’s also possible to verify the fingerprint with other tools, such as the sha256sum command line tool.
