Certificat SSL Sectigo Code Signing Digital ID
Customers can tell who published the software, and they can see whether the package has been opened. These factors enable customers to make decisions about what software to purchase and how much to „trust” those products. Customers who download digitally signed Active X controls, dynamic link libraries, .cab files or HTML content from your site can be confident that code really comes from you and hasn’t been altered or corrupted since it was created and signed. Digital IDs serve as virtual „shrink wrap” for your software: after you sign your code, if it is tampered with in any way, the digital signature will break and alert customers that the code has been altered and is not trustworthy.
A code signing certificate allows software developers to add digital signatures to code and to include information about themselves and the integrity of their code within their software. The end users that download digitally signed 32-bit or 64-bit executable files (.exe, .ocx, .dll, .cab, and more) can be confident that the code really comes from a verified developer and there was no tampering by a third party since it was signed.

There are certain requirements that need to be fulfilled to validate one’s code signing certificate. The three main things that must be verified before issuance of a code signing certificate are:
1. The legal existence of the organization or individual named in the Organization field of the certificate must be verified.
2. The email to which the code signing certificate is to be sent must be someone@domain.com, where domain.com is owned by the organization named in the certificate.
3. A callback must be made to a verified telephone number for the organization or individual named in the certificate in order to verify that the person placing the order is an authorized representative of the organization.
As of June 1, 2023 Code Signing certificates will be:
- Installed on a Sectigo token and shipped securely to the customer
- Available as a download to be installed on the customer’s own HSM. The hardware devices (e.g. tokens, HSMs, etc.) must be FIPS-compliant and support externally verifiable key attestation.
