Code Signing – a fundamental way to secure innovation
Software is increasingly becoming the target of cyber-crime, being maliciously altered or falsified in pursuit of fraudulent or even terroristic objectives. Software developers and distributors are recommended to code-sign their software. Digitally ‘signing’ the file that is to be distributed provides proof that the code has not been tampered with and that it is coming from a known source.
HSM-based code signing is the most secure way to physically and digitally secure code.
Applying a digital certificate to software and applications verifies that it comes from a known source, guaranteeing authenticity & integrity.
Applications and software distributed over the internet, binds the identity of the publisher to the software.
Digitally signed applications display the name of the publisher on the install screen providing the end user with confirmation that they are downloading from a trusted source.
