Is this file hash known malware?

A file hash is a fingerprint. If a downloaded installer or attachment matches known malware, you can stop before running it.

DARKSHARE checks the hash against malware databases and sandbox verdicts and returns a clear 0–100 risk score.

What we check

Data sources we cross-reference

We cross-reference 27+ specialised sources (of 176+ total).

How the 0–100 risk score works

A confirmed malware match is maximal risk. Suspicious tags or partial matches add weight; an unknown hash returns low confidence rather than a false all-clear.

Frequently asked questions

Which hash types are supported?

MD5, SHA-1 and SHA-256. Paste any of them.

Unknown hash — does that mean safe?

No. It means no public source has seen it yet. New or targeted malware is often unknown — combine with other checks.

Do I upload the file?

No, only its hash. Nothing leaves your device except the fingerprint.
