Volver a emitir su certificado de firma de código

Conozca cómo volver a emitir su certificado de firma de código

New private key storage requirements

On May 30, 2023, DigiCert updated our private key storage requirements for code signing certificate private keys, per industry standards. All private keys for code signing certificates must be stored on hardware certified as FIPS 140 Level 2, Common Criteria EAL 4+, or equivalent.

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

Más información sobre el cambio a los certificados de firma de código de clave de 3072 bits.

Si vuelve a emitir su certificado de firma del código (CS) para la plataforma Sun Java, debe enviar una solicitud de firma de certificado (CSR) junto con su solicitud. No obstante, su solicitud puede ir acompañada de una CSR para cualquier plataforma.

Para mantener la seguridad, los certificados deben utilizar un tamaño de clave RSA de 3072 bits o ECC P-256 bits o superior. Para encontrar instrucciones sobre la creación de una CSR para diferentes sistemas operativos y plataformas, consulte Crear CSR para una solicitud de certificado de firma de código.

Only HSM devices require you to submit a CSR with your request. The Code Signing secure token provisioning methods don't include an option for submitting a CSR.

Volver a emitir su certificado de CS

  1. En su cuenta de CertCentral, en el menú principal izquierdo, haga clic en Certificado > Pedidos.

  2. En la página Pedidos, haga clic en el enlace del número de pedido para el certificado de firma de código que desea volver a emitir.

  3. En la página Información del pedido, en el menú desplegable Acciones del certificado, elija Volver a emitir el certificado.

  4. A menos que tenga un motivo específico para elegir un hash de firma diferente, DigiCert recomienda usar el cifrado de firma predeterminado: SHA-256.

    2. Provisioning method

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

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

      • DigiCert-provided hardware token.

        DigiCert ships you 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 code signing certificate, you need to install the certificate on your token.

        In the Platform dropdown, select the type of hardware token on which you plan to install your 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 will not be able to install the certificate on any device that is not on the list.

        If you don't have one of the approved tokens, please select the option to have a preconfigured hardware token shipped to you. If you have any questions, please contact DigiCert Support.

      • Install on HSM.

        After DigiCert issues your 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 is to ensure that a private key is stored on an HSM that is 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.

      Select a different provisioning method if you don't have a compatible HSM. If you have any questions, please contact DigiCert Support.

    3. Motivo de la reemisión

      Indique la razón de la reemisión del certificado.

Qué sigue

Approval for your Code Signing certificate reissue may be required

If a reissue approval is required, we email the Code Signing verified contacts for the organization, informing them that they need to approve the certificate reissue request. Once we receive their approval, we'll reissue your Code Signing certificate.

Certificate issuance

Once the validation is complete and the order is verified-contact approved, we will issue your certificate. Then you can install your certificate on your hardware token or HSM.
