Abstract

A method of reporting search results of a collection of data is disclosed. The method includes obtaining a hash function and a pattern of data for which to search within the collection of data and searching the collection of data for one or more strings of data that match the pattern. In response to finding one or more strings of data that match the pattern, the method further includes hashing each string that matches the pattern of data with the hash function and creating one or more rows of a results table. Each row of the results table corresponds to one string of data that matches the pattern of data and includes the corresponding hashed string of data.
