InstallShield 2019 » Release Wizard
The Digital Signature panel enables you to specify digital signature information for your package and the files in your package. Digitally signing your application assures your end users that the code within your application has not been modified or corrupted since publication.

Description |
|
Certificate URL |
Type a fully qualified URL—for example, http://www.mydomain.com. This URL is used in your digital signature to link to a site that you would like end users to visit to learn more about your product, organization, or company. |

Digital certificate information |
To specify the digital certificate that you want to use to sign your release, click the Browse button next to this setting. The Certificate Selection dialog box opens, enabling you to specify either the location of the .pfx file or information about the certificate store that contains the certificate. To learn more, see Certificate Selection Dialog Box. |
|
Certificate password |
If the .pfx file that you are using has a password, enter it. InstallShield encrypts the password and stores it in your project file (.ism). At build time, InstallShield uses the password to sign files with a .pfx file. If your certificate is protected by a password but you do not enter it in this setting, signing with a .pfx file fails. Note that if you configure your project to use a certificate that was imported with password protection into a store, Windows prompts for the password at build time when InstallShield is attempting to sign your project’s files. The strong key protection that Windows uses does not permit InstallShield to provide the password to the cryptographic provider. |
