The attached zip file(s) represents one VERY large and single file containing all file hash values we have gathered since 2003 which are known to be safe, trusted, known-good and non-threatening.  More specifically, from the following grouped hash sets found within this website:

 – All operating system versions (698) (Details Here)
–  All software and web applications
–  All hardware drivers
–  All MS Windows and Mac app store software
– All simulated “Gold Disks” containing MS Windows operating systems with common software installations (office suites, Internet browsers, etc).
– Duplicate hash values were also removed intentionally from each grouped hash set for purposes of expediting computer forensic examinations, computer security and/or computer file analysis.

These hash values can be utilized to assist in the elimination of non-threatening files during computer forensic and computer security examinations (Computer Compromises, Network Intrusions, eDiscovery, Malware Analysis, etc).
