# 🔐 File Integrity Monitor
A Python-based GUI application that helps monitor file integrity by computing and comparing SHA-256 hashes. Detects added, deleted, or tampered files in real-time to ensure data integrity and traceability.
---
## 🛠️ Features
- 📁 Scan any directory for file changes
- 🔐 Uses **SHA-256 hashing** for strong integrity checks
- 📊 Displays summary: New, Deleted, Modified files
- 🖥️ Clean **dark-themed PyQt5 GUI**
- 📦 Exports results to logs (and can be extended for CSV/JSON output)
---
## 🧪 How It Works
1. On first scan, it computes and stores SHA-256 hashes of all files.
2. On subsequent scans:
- If a file's hash has changed ➜ it's **Modified**
- If a file is missing ➜ it's **Deleted**
- If a new file appears ➜ it's **New**

## 🚀 Technologies Used
- **Python 3**
- **PyQt5** – for GUI
- **Watchdog** – for file monitoring
- **hashlib, os, json, datetime** – for hashing and file ops
