OptionBUCKET_STORAGE_MESSAGE_DIGEST
Description Specifies which cryptographic hash algorithm (the message digest algorithm) is used for data integrity verification in bucket storage.
DefaultMD5

The choice of algorithm balances security needs against performance considerations, with stronger algorithms providing better security but potentially requiring more computational resources. This parameter is only used when USE_AWS_SDK is false.

Common values include:

  • MD5 - Faster but less secure

  • SHA-256 - More secure but slightly more resource-intensive

  • SHA-512 - Highest security but more computational overhead
