In just a few steps, you can connect SignServer to GitHub Actions and add a signing step to your GitHub workflows. This ensures your code is securely signed and trusted throughout development. Try it out today and streamline your security process.
GitHub Actions is a CI/CD automation tool integrated directly into GitHub. It allows you to create workflows that automatically run a sequence of jobs triggered by events in your repository, such as a commit, a pull request, or a release.
Code signing is a must-have security practice. While tools like OpenSSL, etc., are general-purpose cryptography tools, SignServer is a purpose-built software for secure, compliant, and scalable signing operations, making it a better choice for organizations looking for robust code signing solutions.
The SignServer integration with GitHub Actions facilitates signing with your chosen SignServer instance and provides a simple integration to add a signing step to your GitHub workflows.
