Sinossi

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Code signing is the process of digitally signing executables and scripts to confirm the software author and guarantee that the code has not been altered or corrupted since it was signed by use of a cryptographic hash.Code signing can provide several valuable features. The most common use of code signing is to provide security when deploying; in some languages, it can also be used to help prevent narevent namespace conflicts. Almost every code signing implementation will provide some sort of digital signature mechanism to verify the identity of the author or build system, and a checksum to verify that the object has not been modified. It can also be used to provide versioning information about an object or to store other meta data about an object.
