Signum Agents

The Signum agents work by leveraging native signing tools, such as:

• Microsoft's Key Storage Providers (KSP) or Cryptographic Service Providers (CSP) in Windows

• PKCS#11 for Linux

• Keychain for macOS

The Windows Agent comes as an installable .msi and can be configured to operate with an interactive user interface or in a CLI server mode. The Linux Agent is available as a .deb or .rpm package and operates with a CLI only. The macOS agent is installable as a package that includes a CLI tool for configuring the client.

Once users or machines have successfully authenticated to Signum through the agents, they have access to certificates allowed by the roles and policies defined in Signum.
