About:
Jsign is a Java-based command-line tool that digitally signs Windows executables, installers, and scripts using Authenticode technology. It supports various signature formats including PKCS#12 keystores, hardware security modules (HSM), and cloud-based key management services. This tool enables cross-platform code signing workflows without requiring Windows-specific tools.
Key Features:
  • Cross-platform signing (Windows, Linux, macOS)
  • Support for PKCS#12, HSM, and cloud key stores
  • Timestamping support for long-term signature validity
  • Compatible with Authenticode, MSI, and PowerShell scripts
Use Cases:
  • Signing Windows applications from CI/CD pipelines on Linux/macOS
  • Automating release builds with secure code signing
  • Signing scripts and executables for enterprise distribution
Alternatives:
  • signtool – Windows-only, requires Windows SDK
  • osslsigncode – C-based alternative, similar functionality but different implementation
