Small companies have tech people at “C level” that can make such decisions and understand why it’s necessary. My experience is that non-tech managers hardly understand why it’s important to support OSS. I think that the bigger the company and budget, the less likely mgmt is willing to support OSS.

The blog post is about managed code signing in 2024, where I try to find the most affordable way to do code signing:

I am investigating Azure Key Vault as HSM with a private purchased certificate and AzureSignCode. Should be less expensive (I hope) than the alternatives… Did you investigate that path?
