VISUAL INSTALLER'S NOW SUPPORTS
EV CODE SIGNING
 Nowadays
it is very important to code sign installation packages.
This increases the security and gives less warning messages
in Windows and in web browsers.
Since many years back our setup tool
Visual Installer has supported standard digital certificates,
but in the last update of Visual Installer we have also
added support for EV digital certificates. EV digital certificates
increases the security even more and the risk for warning
messages in Windows and in web browsers is reduced to almost
zero. EV digital certificates are more trusted by Windows
and by web browsers than standard digital certificates.

digital certificates in this blog post:
