What GaraTrust is
GaraTrust provides enterprise code signing for binaries, containers, drivers, packages, and other software artifacts. It supports targets across Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Java, Docker, Linux, GPG, PDF, XML, firmware, and SBOMs. A local signing client hashes binaries and sends only the hash for signing; the product page says this completes in milliseconds. Signing keys are non-exportable and held in FIPS 140-2/3 hardware security modules. Named integrations include Thales, Entrust nShield, AWS CloudHSM, Azure Key Vault, Google Cloud KMS, and HashiCorp Vault. Automated hash validation and reproducible-build checks verify that signed code matches its source repository. Teams can sign from CI/CD pipelines or developer workstations using native tools. Manual production signing can use controls such as MFA, device authentication, quorum approvals, IP whitelisting, and granular key permissions. Configured static analysis, fuzzing, and malware-scanning tools can run before approval. GaraTrust is available as SaaS or on-premises, including air-gapped and classified environments. Pricing is on request, and every subscription includes 24/7/365 enterprise support for production environments.
