I believe we use this locally to offer similar functionality, but there has been discussion about having something native to samtools too. That tool allows us to compute sequence and quality checksums on FASTQs or unaligned bams, and then post alignment, sorting, and various other steps recompute it again to ensure all the data is still present and correct. (It did spot errors too, which turned out to be hardware memory corruptions.)

If I wanted to be sure if a BAM or related file is exactly the same with any alterations, I can use hashing algorithms. There exist some popular ones,

I utilized MD5 because it is faster than SHA256 and is sufficient.
