Some times we get asked how digitally signing our software downloads is useful to the end users.

Digital signature protects our software from tampering by a third party. For example, if some one modifies any of our software downloads by inserting any extra code into it, the digital signature will fail.

A valid, digitally signed Domain Punch Pro download will display a screen similar to the following when you download and run it.  You can see the product name as well as our company name (displayed as “publisher“) in the message box that pops up. You may click on the publisher name and verify that the digital signature is OK.

You may want to check the Microsoft online safety page for slightly more detailed explanations.
