Product Signing Keys

We use a number of keys to sign our software packages. The necessary public keys are included in the relevant products and are used to automatically verify software updates. You can also verify the packages manually using the keys on this page.

RPM-based products

Products based on RPM use GPG signing keys. Run the following command to verify an RPM package:

rpm --checksig -v <filename>.rpm

The output of this command shows whether the package is signed and which key signed it.

Release Package Signing

Please do not use package-signing keys to encrypt email messages. Refer to the Security Contacts and Procedures page for secure communication information.
