Osslsigncode

Osslsigncode is a signing tool used to sign, timestamp and verify Authenticode on Linux. Osslsigncode is a native tool that is based on OpenSSL and cURL allowing you to compile it on most platforms where OpenSSL and cURL exist.

Note

To avoid errors when signing large files, use osslsigncode instead of jsign.

Integrate osslsigncode with Sign Manager Controller (SMCTL) for simplified signing. Alternatively, you can sign directly with osslsigncode and reference your private key stored in DigiCert​​®​​ KeyLocker.

Astuce

Osslsigncode is only compatible for signing on Linux. For signing on Windows or macOS, use Jsign.
