First of all i'm new to signing assemblies with SNKs, so this might be a stupid question. I've got a solution with several projects, some of which ought to be signed.

I've done a fair bit of Googling around this topic, and I haven't found a definitive answer yet. Hopefully one of you guys will be able to help out :-) I'm producing a Multi-lingual User Interface (MUI) installer using WiX; the output is a localised MSI for each culture targetted. After the MSIs have been built, a transform (MST) is g...
I was having a problem where my Dev cert didn't expand (was not linked) to my private key. I tracked the issue down to a discrepancy in the email used to create my Dev Cert and the one keychain was auto-selecting when I installed my CSR that I created to make my Dev cert. I verified this by examining the contents of my CSR as follows. ...

Hi, I have an application written in python. I created a plugin system for the application that uses egg files. Egg files contain compiled python files and can be easily decompiled and used to hack the application. Is there a way to secure this system? I'd like to use digital signature for this - sign these egg files and check the signat...

We have a vendor-provided Jar that contains a class we wish to extends and/or modify via AOP. The default Sun JVM security model does not allow code that is unsigned or signed by someone else to extend classes in a signed jar. We can easily remove the signatures from the jar file, but I would prefer to configure the JVM to ignore jar s...

Hi, I've (self-)signed a java applet, so when a user views this applet in a browser, the browser will show a "digital signature cannot be verified" confirmation dialog. That's all ok, but: The value of the "Name:" property (seen above the "Publisher:" property) of this confirmation dialog is set to something I don't remember setting w...
In standard use of asymmetrical cryptographic system, encryption is done with public key, decryption with private key. Inversing the process, "encryption with private key" is called "signing". Standard tools, despite terminology and lack of direct tools, allows to implement encryption system that would use the private key for encryptio...
