I am an MS partner and have an EV Code signing cert
I dropped the cheese on an EV code signing cert for my ill-fated start-up and haven't had a good opportunity to use it. This kind of project is exactly what I had in mind when I acquired it.
If you don't mind the drivers being signed by Stand Back Labs LLC, I'd love to help out. I will host them in a repo under my org @standbacklabs. Let me know if you would be interested in looping me into your releases!
That would be great! Have you signed drivers before so you know the process?
Bo Branten
Nope. Virgin territory. I'm still trying to get it to build - turns out VS 2022 is kinda limited...
I am theoretically signed up as a hardware developer, so in theory I could submit it for WHQL or whatever
Ok making progress - seem to have the right requirements, but VS2019 has many errors when I try to build:
Ok, disabled treat warnings as errors and now it can't find #include "mountmgr.h" in enumDisk.cpp.
I had too many Windows SDKs installed - needed to reinstall the latest
ok, I got it to build and have the output files. Sounds like for Windows 10 and 11, I only need to do attestation signing whihc is actually pretty easy, but not what I expected. I pack into a cab, sign the cab, upload to partner center and supposedly 10 minutes later I can download a package now signed by Microsoft that will play nice with secure boot.
Any other signing methods apply to pre-Win 10. So I'm too tired to figure out the cab packing, but I am somewhat familiar with signtool - at least in the java world. Regroup tomorrow?
@JasonJShuler How is signing the driver going? Because I need to use it on a system with Secure Boot enabled and would rather not enable testsigning
@bobranten @JasonJShuler any progress?
I have not heard from him in a while but it did sound promising to begin with...

Those warnings is because I have only tryed to compile the driver with Win10 WDK but you used the latest Win11 WDK and some functions are marked deprecated, but that is only advisory warnings anyway and you managed to turn them off.

I have not been able to reach the person who offered to sign the driver so there is no progres on that but the project itself is alive, I maintain the driver and try to fix bugs but signing it would be very helpful for the users.

Maybe try emailing them? Based on their GitHub contributions they seem somewhat active

i checked the Website linked in the StandbackLabsrepo he linked above and it lead me to an entirely diffrenty site marked as fishy by ublockorigin which seemingly had nothing to do with what StandbackLabs claims to be based on their GitHub-Repo.
Not to be the boooo-man but this raises a few red flags for me.
@bobranten pinging for attention ;)
[Pro tip: Do NOT purchase/register a domain through the office 365 Admin portal]
Sorry all - my cert expired, and since Microsoft messed up my domain renewal, it was swiped by a scam squatter as noticed by @Shadowphoenix. The new domain is standbacklabs.org. To use a new domain, I will probably have to go through the vetting process again. I seem to still be setup as a MS hardware developer - don't know if I need an active CSS. I'll have to look.
Hopefully the squatter will not renew the domain in a few months, and I can get it back...
As I mentioned previously, I have zero experience with driver development - I will need guidance on how to properly build and test for any supported platforms.
Thanks!
Sorry to hear about the problems but it is very nice of you to want to help us, we will see how it goes.
Bo Branten
FYI - looks like I should be able to renew the csc. It's a $300 investment and is only good for a year.., so... I hope someone will have some time to help me with the steps to get it certified.
I wonder if you could also get ERAM (A RAM Disk driver) to be signed so it can be used in Windows 10 and 11. Its source code is at https://github.com/Zero3K/eram.
Possibly - I haven't started the vetting yet - the .com domain registration expires next month and I'm hoping the squatter doesn't renew (since my previous cert was tied to the .com domain). Sorry about the weird stuff...

Yes, and I renewed it specifically for this... I am full of bright ideas 😜

So, if you get the cert, maybe you can accept donations?
I would like to have the app working.

@JasonJShuler It's been a few months. Have you gotten your domain back?
if i read the graph correctly he has not been active in several months. i doubt that a ping would change that
