Code Signing certificates with a validity time of 5 years are no longer available

At the end of July, it will be no longer possible to request CodeSigning certificates with a validity term of 5 years. The purchase in the web shop www.swisssign.com will be stopped. Starting from today no longer 5 years code signing certificates will be configured as part of the Managed PKI. Due to the requirements of individual rootstores the broad use of CodeSigning certificates is to be guaranteed. Users have to switch to 3- or 1-year validity terms.
