Could you please drop that comma while you're here?  Unlike German, it
modifies the meaning in English in a way that doesn't make sense: it
implies that there is no Hash entry (should that be lower-case instead?)
at all, and that this situation is considered strong enough for security
purposes.  That's obviously nonsensical, and removing the comma so that
the relative clause is restrictive rather than non-restrictive fixes the
grammar.
