Just sometimes a project lands on my desk and I get the feeling that I’m helping make a little IT history. The Averina Code Signing SDK was one of these:
Averina Code Signing Library provides an easy-to-use but powerful API for software publishers and application developers to programmatically sign and verify code files using AuthenticodeĀ® technology. It also introduces Averina’s brand new technology, Universal Software Identificationā¢, which provides improved authenticity for signed software products.
The mathematical underpinnings for this are frankly scary!
I delivered the documentation as both a self-contained .chm file, and HTML pages formatted to look like a traditional online help.
Fortunately my mathematically frayed nerves did not seem to affect the quality of my work. The client was kind enough to say:
You have a great talent to describe even the most technical subjects in a very simple and clear way. Our customers will definitely benefit from your contributions to our reference material. We are looking forward to work with you on our future projects.
