Hey guys,
I started working with NSRL hash sets, and I'm looking for articles, info, software that could help me with the comparison.
Thanks in advance.

Here we go again. Is there any question posted here which meets your personal criteria and doesn't demand a LMGTFY or "have you contacted the author" response? Do you see how that kind of reply, especially to a new member, is unhelpful in the broader scheme of things and stifles, rather than stimulates, discussion?

Not sure what you want to compare with, or how you plan to use them. The NSRL hash set is mainly based on the idea of filtering out known files ('known' meaning that it doesn't contain user- or computer-specific information), for example, and are not intended to identify the source of a particular file, or document the status of a particular file (such as 'known malware'), as some other hashsets are.
You can find some information about an alternative hash set source at www . hashset . com, in the Forum section, where the ideas behind their hash sets are described (article HashSets.com complements NSRL ). The difference is mainly how the hash sets are built.
(Added No, I don't use the hashset . com hashsets, and can't verify that their claims are correct.)

Given the very broad nature of the original question, suggesting that the OP undertake further personal research seems reasonable; it's probably the most important skill for anyone starting out in this field to develop. If the OP had evidently already looked into the topic and had more specific clarifying questions then it would be a different matter.
LMGTFY responses can seem a bit abrupt, but (in this forum at least) there are usually good intentions behind them.

I don't agree. A LMGTFY link as the sole response to a question is simply an insult to someone's intelligence and intended as a put down in most cases.
Don't forget we've been over this ground before in this forum (many times) and I've made it clear what's acceptable, what isn't and why.

Can some of the older members go toe to toe over the more esoteric issues? We could have a 'Rumble Night' every Friday. Could be fun, and I can think of some top of bill bouts already. wink
Only if I get to wear a tight skirt and walk around the ring holding up the round number - that should bring in the punters 😯
Forensic Focus Fight Nights, coming soon…
I have to agree with pragmatopian…the OP's question was very broad. So, rather than responding with a LONG list of questions to which the OP would likely not respond and feel very overwhelmed by, I offered a different approach. Maybe some of the information available at the link would either answer the OP's question (whatever that may be) or provide enough information that the OP clarifies the question.
