Interesting, I wasn’t aware of that. However, isn’t getting an EV certificate impossible for a natural person? You’d have to be some sort of legally recognized

Interesting, I wasn’t aware of that.
However, isn’t getting an EV certificate impossible for a natural person? You’d have to be some sort of legally recognized organization. Not exactly suitable for small-scale Open Source development.

- fuzzy2 8y agoKeePass: This isn’t an EV certificate (has only OID 2.23.140.1.4). Certum also clearly states, topmost on the description of how to get an EV Code Signing certificate: > We do not issue EV Code Signing certificates to natural persons! Yarn: Not an EV certificate either: "Organizationally validated certificates used to sign standard objects." (2.16.840.1.114412.3.1 in addition to 2.23.140.1.4.1).
