Security & Verification
Every release is signed and checksummed. Verify before running.
| Check | Result |
|---|---|
| VirusTotal scan | aHR0cHM6Ly9n… |
| SHA256 checksums | SHA256SUMS.txt |
Verify the SHA256 checksum (Windows):
$expected = (Get-Content SHA256SUMS.txt | Select-String 'NetSentinel-Setup').ToString().Split(' ')[0]
$actual = (Get-FileHash 'NetSentinel-Setup-2.1.11.exe' -Algorithm SHA256).Hash.ToLower()
if ($expected -eq $actual) { '✅ OK' } else { '❌ MISMATCH' }Verify the cosign signature (Windows installer):
