Abstract
A method for identifying data is provided that includes receiving a data stream and performing a hashing operation on a portion of the data stream in order to identify a key that reflects an identity associated with the data stream. The method further includes storing a plurality of first and second hash table entries and comparing the key to the first and second hash table entries in order to evaluate if there is a match between the key and the first and second hash table entries.
