Version 0.3 of Fixity, the free fixity monitoring tool developed by AVPreserve, has been officially released for download on AVPreserve's Tools page and via GitHub. Fixity creates a manifest of files stored in directories identified by the user, documenting file names, locations, and checksums. The user can then schedule regular reviews of the directories to monitor for any changes to files that may point to data corruption or loss.
