OV Standard CodeSigning and Standard CodeSigning HSM
Order received
The Order will create a Vetting case which will be assigned to an Agent who will oversee issuing of your certificates.
Initial vetting
The information provided in the order (Organisation name and address) will be verified. Vetting may ask for additional documentation.
Order is confirmed
Once initial vetting has been done, the Vetting Agent will contact the Organisation named in the certificate to approve the issuance of the order. GlobalSign will also confirm the individual's affiliation with the Organisation.
The Vetting Agent must do this through one of our Verified Methods of Communication below:
Verified methods of Communication
- A call to your company’s registered telephone number as verified in our independent sources. Your direct number or email address can be confirmed during this call.
- A letter to your company’s registered address, containing a password for you to confirm your order via telephone or email.
- A letter of attestation from a TPV such as a registered Latin notary, lawyer or accountant, confirming an alternative verified method of communication.
- Confirmation signed with a publicly trusted certificate (additional verification may be required).
- A recent telephone bill in the name of your organisation (or the name of a listed director), showing a telephone number on which, we can reach you.
We are only allowed to use contact details verified in our independent sources. This does not include Google searches or details from your own website.
- Organisations with an operational existence of less than 3 years may require further documentation.
- For Standard CodeSigning HSM, an additional Audit Form is needed, which will be emailed to the customer by vetting.
