Disc Purity - How to check Burned ISO - Virgin/Pure
Hear me out here peoples,
This is a question I suspect that is technically very relevant to many on the forum - and I haven't seen it addressed anywhere else.
Media creation tool or direct download - either way/whichever way - Once an iso/image is burnt:
What ways are they to test the DVD for purity/authenticity?
Yes - the media creation tool verifies the image - but - malware can infect iso/image files before they are burned + rootkits can interfere during the burning process, injecting data - with the user left unaware.
I'm asking for a technical discussion - on how we can take any burnt installation disc - and check it to ensure it is as it should be. What tools exists/solutions exist out there.
When we download files online - we can sha1 verify (or MD5).
Applying this principle to burning a DVD - how can we check that - what was intended to be burnt is actually what ended up being burnt - and the purity/integrity of the data is there?
To check if there was any contamination of the data - from the point we requested the iso download, and the data that ends up on the disc?
[People say just use a clean machine - but admit it - many that think they have a clean machine are indeed infected and are completely unaware - this is the reality that is initiating this quest for a solution/discussion].
