Code Signing using Sectigo USB Token

See more Code Signing Examples

Demonstrates how to Authenticode sign an EXE or DLL using a SafeNet USB token from Sectigo.

Requires Chilkat v10.0.0 or greater.

    //  This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
    //  See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

    //  First create the following JSON to specify that SHA256 is to be used,
    //  and provide timestamp server information.

    //  {
    //    "hashAlg": "sha256",
    //    "timestampToken": {

    //  The only difference in signing with a smartcard or USB token
    //  is that the cert is loaded from a smartcard or USB token, instead of a PFX or from elsewhere
    //  such as from the Windows certificate store.
    var cert = new chilkat.Cert();

    //  Use your USB token PIN (user password).
    //  It will be a string similar to this:  j6X54nB7-jlp5Cr2
    cert.SmartCardPin = "j6X54nB7-jlp5Cr2";

    //  Load the certificate based on the serial number.
    //  *** Use your certificate's serial number.
    success = cert.LoadFromSmartcard("serial=3FF5B69109BFD4046C92CC0D18EE23C2");
    if (success == false) {

        return;
    }

    //  Note: If the above fails, then use the SafeNet Authentication Client Tools
    //  to login to your token using your token password.
    //  You don't want too many failed logins, otherwise you'll lock the token.
    //  A successful login will reset number of failed logins back to 0.

    //  Note: This is to sign Microsoft Windows executables or DLLs
    //  You can sign .exe or .dll files.
    var exePath = "C:/someDirectory/HelloWorld.exe";

    var signer = new chilkat.CodeSign();

    //  If successful, the following call will apply the signature to the EXE (or DLL).
    success = signer.AddSignature(exePath,cert,json);

        console.log(signer.LastErrorText);
