Renewing an expired iOS Distribution Certificate and rebuilding the provisioning profiles.

macOS Keychain Error -25294 (errSecNoSuchKeychain) — Fixed by Importing the Certificate into login

You try to import a certificate into your keychain and get error -25294, which blocks the import. errSecNoSuchKeychain, meaning 'the specified keychain could not be found,' almost always points not at the certificate itself but at the destination keychain. Based on a case where switching the import target from Local Items to login fixed it, here is the cause and the shortest path to a fix.

Shipping an npm CLI Tool Securely to a Specific Customer — Designing the Build, Sign, and Deliver Pipeline

You want a privately developed npm CLI tool used only inside one customer enterprise, never on the public npm registry. It looks like plain packaging, but in practice you must satisfy three things at once: passing the OS security gates (Gatekeeper and SmartScreen), tamper-evident signing, and a distribution network you can control and audit per customer. Targeting macOS and Windows now with Linux ahead, this post designs build, signing, distribution, and supply-chain hardening as a single pipeline.

Obtaining OV/EV Code Signing Certificates from Japan — Eligibility for Companies, Sole Proprietors, and Individuals, with 2026 Pricing

Before "how much does a code signing certificate cost," you have to settle "can I even obtain one." A Japanese company can get one from almost any CA and pick on price, but an individual developer with no registered business is generally not issued one by major CAs, and Microsoft's own cloud signing service excludes Japan geographically. This post leads with eligibility by applicant type and region, then prices, to map out which certificate a Japanese company or a Japan-resident individual can actually obtain in 2026.

Windows Code Signing CI Costs by Monthly Signing Volume — What Real Vendor Binaries Reveal in 2026

When you automate Windows code signing in CI, the yearly bill for SSL.com eSigner, DigiCert KeyLocker, and Azure Key Vault + GlobalSign can differ by several multiples depending on your monthly signing volume. The service that is cheapest at 20 signings per month becomes the most expensive at 1,000. And when you verify what major vendors actually ship with osslsigncode, an operational principle emerges that no price sheet reveals on its own: 'fix the entry, refresh the payload.' This post organizes the 2026 CI cost comparison and the operational patterns readable from real vendor binaries.

Distributing a Windows Desktop App Safely from Japan — Code Signing and the SmartScreen Reality (2026)

"I want to distribute a Windows app, but I don't want security software to block it." For a Japanese company, the shortest path to meeting that requirement collapses to roughly two options: ship MSIX through the Microsoft Store, or sign an installer with a CA-issued code-signing certificate and serve it from your own site. But on Windows since 2024, buying an EV certificate no longer buys an instant SmartScreen bypass, and Microsoft's cheap cloud signing service, Azure Trusted Signing, excludes Japanese organizations. We assemble the 2026 realistic path end to end, from certificate selection through signing, distribution, and SmartScreen reputation operations.

Distributing Windows Desktop Apps Through Customer Intune Tenants — A Software Vendor Playbook for Win32, MSIX, Code Signing, and Updates

If your customers use Microsoft Intune, almost every path to their Windows desktops in 2026 leads to the Win32 app format. LOB has narrow scope, Store for Business is gone, and MSIX only fits if your app is container-friendly. The vendor's job is to hand IT a signed MSI, an `.intunewin`, detection rules, ADMX templates, and silent install commands. This post lays out the software vendor playbook, including the geographic limits on Azure Artifact Signing (formerly Trusted Signing) that bite vendors based outside the US/EU.
