Is there any cheap way to sign my driver(s) I build using WinDDK?
If so can someone please point me in the right direction.
My condolences for the possible repost, as I am quite sure it’s been asked
before; I just can’t
seem to find the relevant topics here.
Regards,
Kromag.

Define “cheap”.
Define “sign” – For what purpose?
It’s very cheap, in fact it’s free, to sign your driver using signtool from the WDK.

Ah, but it’s not cheap to get the signing certificate you need. Say $500 for
the certificate, plus whatever filing fees your state requires for
incorporating or whatever, plus legal fees (unless you happen to be a
lawyer).

Unless what “you need” is a self-signed cert, right? Like most big corporations use internally, or people use internally for testing, or… ??
That’s why I asked him to define “sign”… and Mr. Farrell asked him to define “cheap”…
We don’t have enough information from the OP to be able to provide an intelligent answer,

Wulll … I’ve gotten a Verisign class III code signing certificate using a
business license to show “doing business as”, which cost $15 in Oklahoma. At
that time I did not need to incorporate. However, the Verisign certificate
at last price check was ~$600. Thgawte has one that is cheaper, ~$150, I
believe.
But as has been said … not really enough information from the orginal
poster. If this is, as he intimated in one post, a total give-away, then
Signtool seems the way to go, unless he wants to distribute it to a 64b it
system, but we don’t know that since he did not say.

The one from Thawte does not have a cross certificate, making it unsuitable
for kernelmode code signing. But there are suitable certificates from other
companies available for that price.
