Any publisher who plans to distribute code or content over the Internet or over corporate extranets risks impersonation and tampering. A Code Signing Certificate for Authenticode Technology protects against these hazards.
In conjunction with Microsoft's Authenticode technology, this enables you to digitally sign 32-bit or 64-bit .exe (PE files), .cab, .dll and .ocx, files. You must use Internet Explorer 5.x or later to enroll for and pick up your Authenticode Code Signing certificate.
Authenticode, through the use of digital signatures, enables software developers to include information about themselves and their code with their programs.
When customers download software signed with Authenticode, they can be assured of:
- Content Source - The software really comes from the publisher who signed it.
- Content Integrity - The software has not been altered or corrupted since it was signed.
Users benefit from this software accountability because they know who published the software, and they know the code has not been tampered with.
