Secure

All the private keys associated with the code signing or package signing certificates are not exposed to the process that is doing the signing. Only approved requests are allowed to perform signing operations and an audit log is kept of all signing operations.

Easy To Use

The Signing Manager app just requires an API key and a URL. Once those values are configured, certificates are available for signing operations. The certificates are automatically added to the keychain and are shown in the Signing Manager. Apple signing tools request the certificate based on a fingerprint or name of the certificate and Signing Manager handles the rest.

Server or Developer

All operations for configuring Signing Manager, discovering certificates and signing binaries can be done on the command line so it makes it an idea solution for Developers using Xcode, Release Managers, or CI/CI Servers.

Easy to Update Certificates

Since certificates and private keys are not installed on developer or build servers, updating an expired certificate is easy. When the certificate expires,  the certificates and keys are updated on the Signing Service and all operations continue.

Open Source

Both the Signing Manager macOS app and the Signing Service are released as open source software with a BSD-style license. Code can be audited and customized to fit your organization’s needs. Or work with Twocanoes Software to update the project for benefit of all who use it.
