Identify unknown hash format - hackerman - 11-21-2021
Hi, I stumbled across this hash:
dsd+GIwaqTaFH4XXXXXXXXXXXHh+MTkXXXXXXXkW18o=
I don't know what format it is in and it was not recognized by both hashcat and hashid.
Does anyone know what this could be?
Thanks in advance

It looks like base64 encoded data, it's not the exact correct length but I assume you maybe made a length typo when replacing some of the data with XXXX. If the length is roughly correct then this looks like 512 bits of data. So it could fall in any of the 512 bit hashes (SHA-512 etc). However if you don't know what this data means then it could literally be anything.
