Configuring Code Signer Certificates
Code signing appends a digital signature to the actual executable code. This digital signature provides
enough information to authenticate the signer, and ensure that the code has not been modified after being
signed.
Code signer certificates are special certificates whose associated private keys are used to create digital
signatures. The certificates used to sign code are obtained from a CA, in which the signed code reveals
the certificate origin. You can import code signer certificates on the Code Signer pane, or choose
Configuration > Remote Access VPN > Clientless SSL VPN Access > Advanced > Java Code Signer.
In the Code Signer pane, you can perform the following tasks:
• Display details of a code signer certificate.
• Delete an existing code signer certificate.
• Import an existing code signer certificate.
• Export an existing code signer certificate.
• Enroll for a code signer certificate with Entrust.
