Digital Shrink Wrap to Protect Your Brand

Symantec Code Signing Certificates provide a virtual "shrink wrap" for secure delivery of content over the Internet. When customers install applications in Adobe AIR digitally signed and verified by Symantec, 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. Learn more: Five Reasons for Code Signing.

Increase Customer Confidence with a Trusted Digital Signature

Symantec authenticates the identity and authority of the certificate requestor using our robust, time-tested verification process. When Adobe AIR users encounter a security warning, asking whether or not to trust the source of the code verified by Symantec, they have the confidence to proceed. Learn more: How Code Signing Works.

Make the Most of Your Code Signing Investment

With Symantec Code Signing Certificates, developers select a platform, a validity period and install the certificate on their desktop or a portable device such as a USB drive. A timestamp option shows when code was signed, allowing customers to verify that the code signing certificate was valid at the time of the digital signature.

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 Symantec root certificates come preinstalled on most end users' devices and embedded in most applications, the digital signature authentication and verification process is seamless and transparent to most end users.
