Unlike the more popular, but less secure, [flat file hash](/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.utility/get-filehash), the Authenticode hash calculation omits the file's checksum and the Certificate Table and the Attribute Certificate Table. Therefore, the Authenticode hash of a file does not change when the file is re-signed or timestamped, or the digital signature is removed from the file. By using the Authenticode hash, WDAC provides added security and less management overhead so customers do not need to revise the policy hash rules when the digital signature on the file is updated. +WDAC uses the [Authenticode/PE image hash algorithm](https://download.microsoft.com/download/9/c/5/9c5b2167-8017-4bae-9fde-d599bac8184a/Authenticode_PE.docx) when calculating the hash of a file.
