A fair bit of software is some Windows binary that has been digitally signed to verify its authenticity, alongside Linux binaries (.APPIMAGE is my fave portable piece of software that runs everywhere without having to install). You can check the authenticity of the .APPIMAGE by check-summing it and comparing against public lists of sums which are known-good hashes.
