InfoWatch - 0% Detection Rate *

Did you just find a file that is digitally signed by InfoWatch? If that's the case, please read on.

You'll typically notice InfoWatch when double-clicking to run the file. The publisher name shows up as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

You can view additional details from the InfoWatch certificate with the following procedure:

  1. Open up Windows Explorer and locate the InfoWatch file
  2. Right-click the file and select Properties
  3. Click the Digital Signatures tab
  4. Click on the View Certificate button

Here's a screenshot of a file digitally signed by InfoWatch:

As you can see in the screenshot above, Windows states that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by InfoWatch and that the file has not been tampered with.

If you click the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above, you can view all the details of the certificate, such as when it was issued, who issued the certificate, how long it is valid, etc. You can also examine the address for InfoWatch, such as the street name, city and country.

VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing 2009-2 CA and VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing 2010 CA has issued the InfoWatch certificates. You can also see the details of the issuer by clicking the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above.
