code signing certificates

• Inspire user confidence by showing customers your verified identity and the integrity of your code.
• Protect brand assets and reputation by preventing your code from being damaged or falsified and making it easy to recall.
• Buy, renew, and manage code signing and SSL certificates with a single, secure sign-in to Thawte® Certificate Center.
• Save time and money by purchasing multi-year code signing certificates.
• Reduce the cost of maintaining code with a free timestamp.

Thawte® Code Signing Certificates create a unique digital signature with identification information about the publisher of the code and proof of the code’s integrity. A digital signature is required for all Adobe AIR-based applications. When a user encounters unsigned or self-signed applications, a security warning pops up.

When a signed application is encountered, a pop-up notification shows the verified identity of the publisher and the user decides whether or not to trust the code.
