The signing will be done through addons.mozilla.org (AMO) and will be mandatory for all extensions, regardless of where they are hosted.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>How Firefox Sign Addons?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If a Firefox Addon developer does not have a Mozilla account; he\u2019ll need to create one, after signup\/sign-in the developer can submit the Addon\/Extension for review. Mozilla\u2019s automated review system will the check the Addon submission.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If the automated reviewing system encounters any errors, the developer will then need to apply for a manual verification. Then, one of Mozilla\u2019s moderators will review the Addon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mozilla\u2019s new policy specifically says, the Addon developer can host their Addon either on Mozilla\u2019s server or they can host on a third-party hosting service.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Note: Only Extension\/Addons may be reviewed by the Mozilla team only. Dictionary, Themes, Language Packs, Plugins are excluded, so developers do not need to apply for the review.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<h3>Simply Sign Addons\/Extensions with an SSL Certificate<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Mozilla states that developers can secure their Addons\/Extension using a trusted SSL certificate or Code Signing certificate from a globally recognized certificate authority such as; Comodo, GeoTrust, CERTUM, Thawte, Symantec (formerly Verisign).<\/p>\n<p>SSL and Code Signing Certificates that are trusted by Firefox:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Comodo Code Signing\u00a0Certificate<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Thawte Code signing Certificate<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Symantec (Verisign) Code Signing Certificate<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If you want a secured environment for your Addon users, you can sign your extension using any of the above-listed certificates. This signing method will help convince the Mozilla moderators that you are putting user\u2019s safety &amp; security first, which will help to approve the Addon\/Extension quickly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>1. Comodo Code Signing Certificate<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It is an advanced-level digital signature solution, which is designed to secure software, application, codes, contents and scripts on the Internet.

Thawte Code Signing Certificate<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Thawte Code Signing<\/strong> certificate is also a perfect solution for Addon developers. It digitally signs the Addon\/extension codes, scripts, and content. Once the Addon is signed with a Thawte code signing, it won\u2019t allow hackers to tamper, breach or change the Addon code\/scripts\/data in any way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It\u2019s compatible with <strong>Mozilla Firefox<\/strong> and gives that necessary security to Java applets, Java Software, Windows &amp; Mac Software, Android &amp; iOS Apps, Microsoft documents &amp; files, etc\u2026 which provides trust &amp; confidence to Addon users of various platforms.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As it is trusted by Mozilla Firefox, it will help the moderator understand that your Addon is encrypted with world\u2019s most trusted security solution &amp; will help sign your Addon as trusted quickly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Go here for more detailed information on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/cheapsslsecurity.com\/thawte\/codesigningcertificate.html\">Thawte Code Signing<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Thawte Code Signing Features<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trusted &amp; reliable solutions to sign Addons<\/li>\n<li>Compatible with Mozilla Firefox<\/li>\n<li>Secures Addon\/Extension Codes &amp; Scripts<\/li>\n<li>Multiple Platform support<\/li>\n<li>Eliminates security warnings<\/li>\n<li>Boosts Addon\/Extension Downloads<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Internet users are increasing day by day, and user security is always a concern for the Mozilla team.
