MIM (Minimal Identity Mozaic)

MIM is a Hash Visualization format utilising 4x4 colour matrixes. This provides a quick and easy method to compare fingerprints, e.g. SSH keys, x509 certs etc.

[ Go Implementation ] [ Rust Implementation ]

Properties

• Pre Image Resistant
• Fixed Length Output
• Collision Resistant
• Fast & Efficient
• Customisable CHF
• Identical Colours Cross Platform

Output

MIM outputs coloured ANSI escape codes or SVGs.

Example

package main

import (
	"crypto/sha256"
	"fmt"

	"github.com/go-compile/mim"
)

func main() {
	fingerprint := sha256.Sum256([]byte("certificate contents would typically go here"))

	fmt.Printf("Fingerprint: %X\n\n", fingerprint)
	
	fmt.Println(mim.New(fingerprint[:], sha256.New).ANSI())
}
