Importing a Code-Signing Certificate
W-ClearPass Onboard supports importing a code-signing certificate chain and private key for signing the
Windows provisioning application. Certificates can be uploaded as PFX, PKCS-12, SPC, or PKCS-7, and can
include a chain of certificates. An operator’s profile must include the Import Code-Signing Certificate privilege in
order to access this feature. Code-signing certificates can also be used as profile-signing certificates.
To import a trusted certificate, see "Importing a Trusted Certificate " on page 132.

l Go to Onboard > Management and Control >View by Certificate and click the Upload a code-
signing certificate link.
