Code signing Windows apps may be easier and more secure with new Azure Artifact service
Summary
Azure Artifact Signing (AAS) is now generally available in the USA, Canada, and Europe, enabling Windows apps to be signed with daily-renewed 24-hour certificates to reduce end-user warnings. It supports multiple workflows (signtool, GitHub Actions, Azure DevOps, PowerShell) and uses non-EV certificates, with regional availability and future expansion hints; it also discusses cost, compatibility, and security implications for SMBs and enterprises.
