Code Signing Certificate Renewal Process
Automate code signing certificate renewal approvals to maintain software integrity and trust.

Why automate?
Code signing certificates authenticate software authenticity and integrity, ensuring that applications remain secure and untampered. Expired or unapproved certificates can trigger security warnings, break software installations, and compromise trust. Manually tracking certificate expirations leads to missed renewals, unauthorized key usage, and security vulnerabilities. A structured approval workflow ensures that renewal requests are reviewed in advance and processed on time. Cflow helps to automate Code Signing Certificate Renewal Approvals, ensuring that all renewal requests are authorized, logged, and aligned with security policies, preventing certificate-related disruptions.
