Code Signing for Microsoft Windows Azure Platform

Welcome to Symantec - the security partner for the Microsoft Windows Azure™ Platform.

Symantec is the leading Code Signing Certificate Authority enabling secure digital content transfer for the software developers and their users. Symantec Code Signing Certificates "digitally shrink wrap" your cloud-based software by applying a digital signature to codes.

A hash included in the signature will allow users of the software to verify that the identity of the software author is true as claimed and the software has not been altered or corrupted since it was signed and released.

Microsoft has teamed up with Symantec to ensure best-of-breed online security solutions for Azure customers and partners. Cloud environments, such as Azure, have unique information security requirements, which prohibit unsigned digital contents to run in the cloud.

BENEFITS

Increase the distribution and adoption of cloud-based software with a digital signature.

Build a trusted relationship for your brand by reducing error messages and security warnings.
