- a user can trust a specific version of a mod.
- a specific mod can be trusted because it is signed, using cryptographic signatures, by a specific Spotfire user.
- a specific mod can be trusted because it is signed by a certificate issued by a trusted certificate authority.
When a mod has been signed, any further changes to the mod code will change the hash sum of the mod and there will be a mismatch with what was signed, so any attempts to change the code by a third party should be detectable. See Trusting custom content in the Spotfire environment for more information about trust in general.
