The most important benefit offered by the DigiCert EV code signing certificate is that it instantly builds trust with Microsoft’s SmartScreen® Application Reputation filter. Microsoft SmartScreen warnings are one of the most frustrating problems software publishers have to deal with—it’s a big, scary warning that effectively kills software installs. SmartScreen is notoriously sensitive, often flagging new software packages as dangerous simply because Microsoft doesn’t have enough data on the file or publisher yet. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution: DigiCert EV code signing.
The DigiCert Code Signing Certificate is supported by most major platforms. It enables you to sign any code across multiple platforms.
- Microsoft Authenticode®
- Microsoft Office & Microsoft VBA
- Adobe® AIR®
- Java®
- Apple's Mac OS
- Mozilla® Objects
A more rigorous vetting process that shows commitment and offers peace of mind to end-users.
Get superior security with two-factor authentication. This process entails the private encryption key being stored on a USB device. You will physically have this device after your purchase and only those with the USB can sign code with your DigiCert EV Code Signing Certificate.
Don’t let Microsoft SmartScreen be an issue but rather an advantage. This EV cert will generate trust with this reputation filter, which will result in a reduction of warning messages and increased trust with users.
