Regular Code Signing \u2014 Difference Explained"},"content":{"rendered":"<h2>There are two big differences between EV Code Signing Certificate vs standard Code Signing<\/h2>\n<p>Code signing certificates are used by software developers as proof that their product is secure and hasn\u2019t been tampered with. As such, end-users feel more comfortable about downloading and using the product.<\/p>\n<p>When you\u2019re considering code signing, you have two options \u2014 regular <strong>code signing or EV code signing<\/strong>. The latter of these is a bit more involved, but it has certain specific advantages.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, we\u2019ll discuss the prime differences between regular code signing and EV code signing so you can determine which is suitable for your needs.<\/p>\n<h2>What is EV Code Signing?<\/h2>\n<p>EV Code Signing, short for Extended Validation Code Signing certificate, entails extensive vetting of the publisher. Additionally, in EV code signing certificates, the private keys are stored externally to prevent any unauthorized use. These are the two big differences between standard code signing and EV.<\/p>\n<h2>Benefits of EV Code Signing<\/h2>\n<p>The following are the prime benefits of EV Code Signing certificates.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>User Trust<\/strong>: These days, customers are extremely careful about the software they download. They need some assurance that it\u2019s safe and that it hasn\u2019t been modified by a malicious third-party. Without an EV certificate, the user\u2019s browser might flash a warning that the software isn\u2019t trustworthy. As such, an EV Code Signing certificate can increase user trust and your conversion rates by eliminating all such warnings.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Building Reputation<\/strong>: If your product is signed by an EV Code Signing certificate, it is instantly trusted by Google, Mozilla, Microsoft, and all other major platforms and browsers, including Microsoft SmartScreen filter. SmartScreen, in particular, is a notoriously difficult filter to gain reputation with, but EV code signing provides a substantial boost, helping even the newest of developers to get their software trusted.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Safety<\/strong>: A physical token is required to sign code in order to prevent any unauthorized use or certificate abuse. This means that keys don\u2019t need to be kept on your network, making their security much more robust.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>What is Regular Code Signing?<\/h2>\n<p>Non-EV Code Signing certificates are issued after a standard vetting of the publisher. In this case, the certificate is issued quickly and the private key is stored locally in the developer\u2019s workstation. Standard code signing bears a resemblances to Organization Validated SSL.<\/p>\n<h2>EV Code Signing Vs.
