Code signing
Ship software with a verifiable publisher.
Prepare your signing process, validate the resulting signatures and document what is needed to distribute your software.
Scope agreed before payment · Your own project inbox
A good fit
Is this what you need?
Teams distributing Windows applications.
We review your artifacts and publisher requirements, configure the signing workflow and verify the resulting signatures and timestamps.
We’ll use your project brief to agree priorities, access requirements and the deliverables that matter to you. New projects can start with an idea; existing systems can include a link or repository.
You’ll need the relevant developer account and permission to submit the application. Store approval and release decisions remain with the platform.
Clear outputs
What you’ll receive.
We agree the final scope before work starts. Your service can include:
Windows executable and installer signing support
Signing pipeline and certificate configuration
Trusted timestamp setup and verification
Signature and installation checks
Publisher verification report and remaining platform considerations

Scope first. Then the next step.
Create your project, review the scope with us, and receive your invoice and checkout link in your inbox and by email. For paid work, we verify payment before assigning your engineer and activating the service.
Before you begin
A little more clarity.
Questions about code signing, answered.
Will Windows SmartScreen warnings disappear immediately?
No. A valid signature identifies the publisher, but SmartScreen also considers file and publisher reputation. New signed builds can still show warnings.
How do I get started?
Create a project with this service selected and tell us what you need. Your project inbox opens immediately so we can review the scope together. You can also book a free consultation first.
When do I pay, and when does work begin?
We review your scope and send an agreed invoice and secure checkout link by email and in your project inbox. After payment verification, we assign an engineer and activate your service. Creating a project does not start paid work.
