# What is MurMurHash?
MurmurHash is a non-cryptographic hash function suitable for general hash-based lookup. The name comes from two basic operations, multiply (MU) and rotate (R), used in its inner loop. The current version is MurmurHash3 which yields a 32-bit or 128-bit hash value. When using 128-bits, the x86 and x64 versions do not produce the same values, as the algorithms are optimized for their respective platforms. MurmurHash3 was released alongside SMHasher—a hash function test suite.

# Hunting Phish Events for Paypal & Tesla:

After reading about hunting of phishing websites using favicon hashes I thought to generalise it to accept Favicon URLs for quick analysis on the Shodan.

Looking for a favicon icon file on the orginal website of Paypal:

Using `MurMurHash.py` file generating hash of the icon:

Now, let's search for Tesla icon on the original site:
