Pedir un certificado de firma de código EV

Importante

El sector pasó a utilizar una clave RSA de 3072 bits como mínimo para los certificados de firma de código

Para cumplir con los cambios de la industria, DigiCert ha realizado los siguientes cambios en nuestro proceso de certificados de firma de código:

  • Solo emite certificados de firma de código RSA de 3072 bits o superiores*.

  • Utiliza nuevas CA intermedias y certificados raíz para emitir nuestros certificados de firma de código y de firma de código EV: RSA y ECC

DigiCert admite dos tokens electrónicos:

  • 5110 CC para certificados de clave RSA de 4096 bits y ECC P de 256 bits

  • 5110 FIPS para certificados de clave ECC P-256 y P-384 bits

  • SafeNet eToken 5110+ FIPS for RSA 4096-bit and ECC P-256-bit key certificates.

  • SafeNet eToken 5110+ CC (940B) for ECC P-256-bit key certificates.

HSM debe:

  • Admite tamaños de clave RSA de 3072 bits o ECC P-256 bits o superiores

  • Dispositivos compatibles con FIPS 140-2 Nivel 2+ o Common Criteria EAL4+

  • Generar una CSR (solo pedidos HSM)Si está reemitiendo su certificado de firma de código EV para un dispositivo HSM, debe enviar una solicitud de firma de certificado (CSR) con su solicitud.

    Generar una CSR (solo pedidos HSM)Si está reemitiendo su certificado de firma de código EV para un dispositivo HSM, debe enviar una solicitud de firma de certificado (CSR) con su solicitud.

    Para mantener la seguridad, los certificados deben utilizar un tamaño de clave RSA de 3072 bits o ECC P-256 bits o superior. Consulte la documentación de su proveedor de HSM a fin de crear la CSR para su solicitud.

Pedir su certificado EV de firma de código

  1. In the left main menu, hover over Request a Certificate. Under Code Signing Certificates, select EV Code Signing.

  2. On the Request EV Code Signing Certificate page, in the For dropdown, select the division to manage the certificate.

    The For dropdown only appears if your account uses Divisions.

Configuración de certificados

  1. Período de validez

    Seleccione un período de validez para el certificado: 1 año, 2 años o 3 años.

    If needed, you can customize the expiration date or certificate length. However, you cannot exceed the 39-month maximum EV code signing certificate validity.

  2. Renovación automática

    A fin de configurar la renovación automática para este certificado, seleccione Autorrenovar pedido 30 días antes del vencimiento.

    Con la renovación automática activada, se enviará automáticamente un nuevo pedido de certificado cuando este se acerque a su fecha de caducidad. Si todavía falta tiempo para que su certificado venza, DigiCert agrega el tiempo restante de su certificado vigente a su certificado nuevo (hasta 39 meses).

Importante

If your certificate still has time remaining before it expires, DigiCert adds the remaining time from your current certificate to your new certificate (up to 39 months).

Organization

  1. Organización

    Select Add organization. The organization name will appear on the EV code signing certificate.

    En el menú desplegable, elija la organización para la cual pide el certificado EV de firma de código. El nombre de la organización aparecerá en el certificado de firma de código EV.

Opciones de aprovisionamiento

  • Provisioning options

    The provisioning method refers to where you will store the private key and certificate. For the security of your EV Code Signing certificate, the certificate must be installed on and used from an approved device.

    Select the storage device for your EV Code Signing certificate and its' private key.

    • DigiCert-provided hardware token

      DigiCert ships a secure token with instructions for installing the certificate on your token. So you can start signing code.

      Then, under Shipping address, add your shipping information: your name and the address where you want us to send the hardware token.

    • Use existing token

      After DigiCert issues your EV code signing certificate, install the certificate on your token.

      In the Platform dropdown, select the type of hardware token on which you plan to install your EV Code Signing certificate:

      • SafeNet eToken 5110 CC (940) for RSA 4096-bit and ECC P-256-bit or higher key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110 FIPS for ECC P-256 and P-384-bit key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110+ FIPS for RSA 4096-bit and ECC P-256-bit or higher key certificates.

      • SafeNet eToken 5110+ CC (940B) for ECC P-256-bit key certificates.

      Importante

      You must have a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 or Common Criteria EAL4+ compliant device. See Currently Supported eTokens. You cannot install the certificate on any device not on the list.

      Need an approved token?

      Please select DigiCert-provided hardware token to have a token shipped to you. If you have questions, please contact DigiCert Support.

    • Install on HSM

      After DigiCert issues your EV code signing certificate, install it on the HSM where you generated the private key and CSR.

      Select Yes under Was the private key generated by a Common Criteria EAL4+ standard or FIPS 140-2 level 2 HSM?

      Note that we will send the certificate requestor an agreement email. This email ensures the private key is stored on an HSM certified as FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent. DigiCert will only issue the certificate after the requester agrees to the private key protection requirement.

      Importante

      You must have a FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent hardware security module (HSM) that supports at least 3072-bit keys.
