about_PsFCIV_Module.help.txt SHORT DESCRIPTION This module is a PowerShell native implementation of former Microsoft's File Checksum Integrity Verifier (FCIV). LONG DESCRIPTION The module replaces and enhances discontinued Microsoft's File Checksum Integrity Verifier (FCIV) which is intended to monitor file share integrity. PsFCIV is two-way compatible with FCIV database format, thus transition from FCIV doesn't require any efforts. PsFCIV includes the following features: * Include or exclude sub-folders, choose algorithms, and direct output. * The utility can hash single files, folders, or recursively, large folder structures. * The hash algorithms available are MD5, SHA1 and SHA2 algorithm family. Multiple hashes can be calculated for every file. * Adds custom actions for bad (tampered) files: rename or delete file * Enhanced verbose and debug logging * PsFCIV includes the following working modes: - New -- creates a new XML database for file share - Check -- checks file share against database for integrity - FCIV -- migrates FCIV database to PsFCIV format - Rebuild -- adds new files to database and removes no longer existing files from database. This mode doesn't check existing files. - Online -- performs one-time hash calculation without creating a database file. BUILT-IN COMMANDS PsFCIV exports single command 'Start-PsFCIV'. Type 'Get-Help Start-PsFCIV' to read command description, parameters and usage examples. DOCUMENTATION Documentation for PsFCIV module and its commands are available at project home page: https://www.pkisolutions.com/tools/psfciv/ SUPPORT INFORMATION The official support page for the module: https://github.com/PKISolutions/PsFCIV Any comments and questions must be addressed under Issues tab.
