"GeoTrust has expanded its Smartphone Credentials code signing service to include privileged certificates for Windows Mobile device environments. Software vendors use digital certificates to sign, or authenticate, the code they provide to wireless carriers and to protect end users against malicious code tampering, according to the company. GeoTrust code signing certificates allow developers to add their "digital signature" to code before it is submitted or transmitted over a network. When issuing code signing certificates, GeoTrust says it verifies that the developer is tied to a legitimate organization and that the individual is authorized to sign code on behalf of that organization."
GeoTrust is now offering both privileged and unprivileged certificates at the same price and in blocks of signing events, without any expiration date. More information can be obtained on the GeoTrust's Web site. It looks like their pricing for 10 signing event is 25% lower than VeriSign's package and is priced at $295.
