 A VirtualNIC.com Code Signing Certificate is essential for:

• Any commercial or open source provider who distributes code or content over the Internet or via an extranet.

Code signing adds a digital signature to the software's executable code, validating that the code comes from you. When an end-user attempts to download your content, a dialog box will appear identifying you as the publisher. Any alteration of the original code breaks the digital signature, alerting potential users that the content is not to be trusted.

• Allows publishers to sign .exe, .cab, .dll, and .ocx files; Java Applets and MIDlets; Microsoft® Office documents with macros; and other types of files that support digital signatures.
• CanNames.com Code Signing Certificates are fully integrated with Industry-Standard Technology.
• Code Signing Certificates are available only to legally registered companies with a registered status of "Good Standing", "Active" or equivalent. Registration will be confirmed with the appropriate government agency before issuing the Code Signing Certificate.
