Digital Shrink Wrap to Protect Your Brand

VeriSign® Code Signing Certificates provide a virtual “shrink wrap” for secure delivery of content over the Internet. When customers download software signed with Authenticode® Technology and verified by VeriSign, they can be assured of the content source and the content integrity. Code Signing adds a level of trust to your applications and makes them harder to falsify or damage, protecting your brand and your intellectual property.

Increase Customer Confidence with Fewer Security Warnings

When Internet Explorer®, Exchange®, Outlook®, or other Microsoft programs encounter unsigned executables, a security warning disrupts the user or content simply fails to load. To prevent disruption, publishers who use ActiveX® controls, plug-ins and other executables should sign their code using Authenticode® Technology and a VeriSign® Code Signing Certificate for Microsoft® Authenticode®.

Make the Most of Your Code Signing Investment

With VeriSign Code Signing Certificates, developers select a platform and validity period, and they install the certificate on their desktop or on a portable device such as a USB drive. A time stamp option shows when code was signed, allowing customers to verify that the code signing certificate was valid at the time of the digital signature. VeriSign is a trusted provider of digital certificates for Microsoft Windows® Logo programs.

The Leader in Online Trust and Security

VeriSign supports more platforms than any other code signing provider with the most reliable infrastructure and the most trusted security brand on the Internet (Tec-Ed Whitepaper, PDF, Oct 2007). Because VeriSign root certificates come preinstalled on most end user devices and embedded in most applications, the digital signature authentication and verification process is seamless and transparent to most end users.
