Tech/Engineering - Computers (general) / IP addresses etc. (criminal investigation)
Danish term or phrase: udfinde, udfundet
This is part of a criminal investigation. The police have searched IP addresses, etc. and write the following in their report:

"Der gøres opmærksom på, at brugerne i sagen er blevet udfundet på baggrund af filernes hashværdi, og har derfor været i besiddelse af den komplette fil. Dette kan med sikkerhed ligges til grund, idet hashværdien bliver skabt ud fra en algoritme, som kræver at hele filen er tilstede. Hvis brugeren kun var i besiddelse af brudstykker fra filen ville hashværdien ikke stemme overens med ovenstående filer."

How would you translate this 'udfinde/udfundet'? Detect? Determine? Extracted?

My deadline is Sunday evening Pacific Time.

Thanks in advance!

Explanation:
I'd say "determine", but your other suggestions could work too. I think you've more or less answered the question yourself, so should we even be given points for this?
