Each release includes a checksums.txt file on the same GitHub Releases page as your installer. Download it alongside the binary before verifying.
Verify on Windows
Open PowerShell and run:
Get-FileHash Basis-Setup-x64.msix -Algorithm SHA256
Compare the Hash value in the output against the corresponding line in checksums.txt.
Verify on Linux / macOS
sha256sum basis-server-linux-x64.tar.gz
To verify all files at once against the checksums file:
sha256sum --check checksums.txt
Every line should output OK. Any FAILED result means the file is corrupt or has been tampered with — re-download it.
Why verify?
Verification ensures the file you downloaded is exactly the file published by the Basis team — it has not been modified in transit or by a compromised mirror. This is especially important for server deployments handling financial data.
Always download Basis from the official GitHub Releases page or the Basis website. Do not install binaries from third-party sites.
