DigiCert EV Code Signing Certificate

Provide the highest level of security for your device drivers, apps, executable programs and the users who download them…

There's no better place to start than by offering the highest level of security with your software. With billions of downloads every year and thousands of options to choose from, you want every advantage you can get to offer the best experience possible to your end-users. Warning messages can cause loss of trust and revenue, which is why it's wise to do everything possible to avoid having them attached to your organization's name.

The DigiCert Extended Validation (EV) Code Signing Certificate is the ultimate tool of trust. With the use of two-factor authentication and an encrypted digital signature, this EV code signing cert helps you avoid warning messages, tamper-proof your software and offer secure downloads for your users.

Smart Screen

The most important benefit offered by the DigiCert EV code signing certificate is that it instantly builds trust with Microsoft's SmartScreen® Application Reputation filter. Microsoft SmartScreen warnings are one of the most frustrating problems software publishers have to deal with—it's a big, scary warning that effectively kills software installs. SmartScreen is notoriously sensitive, often flagging new software packages as dangerous simply because Microsoft doesn't have enough data on the file or publisher yet. Fortunately, there's a simple solution: DigiCert EV code signing.

Note: In March 2024, Microsoft changed the way MS SmartScreen interacts with EV Code Signing certificates. EV Code Signing certificates remain the highest trust certificates available, but they no longer instantly remove SmartScreen warnings.
