B. Code Signing Code signing helps ensure the integrity and authenticity of your software package. It prevents bad actors from successfully repackaging your software with malware, as the digital signature would no longer match. Users can verify that the software comes from you and hasn't been tampered with since you signed it, increasing trust and security.
