Why you Need Windows EV Code Signing Certificate?

EV code signing is essential for signing Windows drivers, mainly Windows 10/11. These operating systems impose strict requirements to enhance system security. Here's why you need EV code signing for Windows drivers:

Windows EV Code Signing Certificate
  • Kernel Mode Driver Loading:

    Windows 10/11 mandates that a trusted source must sign all new kernel mode drivers for them to load. Without an EV Code Signing Certificate, your drivers won't pass this requirement, preventing them from functioning on these OS versions.

  • 64-Bit Windows Requirement:

    All drivers must be signed on 64-bit versions of Windows. It includes not only kernel mode drivers but also user mode drivers. For public release, your driver needs to be signed by a trusted root authority.

  • Windows Version Compatibility:

    Attestation signing is specific to Windows 10 Desktop and later versions. It won't work on older Windows versions like Windows Server 2016, Windows 8, or Windows 7.

  • User and Kernel Mode Support:

    While user-mode drivers for Windows 10 don't require Microsoft's signature, the same attestation process can be applied to both user and kernel mode drivers. However, older Windows versions may need HLK/HCK test logs for certification.

  • Attestation Signing:

    To submit your driver to the Partner Center (Hardware Dev Center Dashboard) for attestation signing, you must use an extended validation (EV) Certificate. This ensures strong authentication and adds an extra layer of security.

  • Enhancing Windows Security:

    These requirements are in place to enhance Windows security. They minimize the risk of signing keys being lost or stolen and ensure that driver publishers are authenticated. It helps protect the integrity of the Windows ecosystem.
