Explanation:
Executable Rules, for .exe and can be based on Publisher, Product name, filename and version. Use
Certificate Rules on Windows Executables for Software Restriction Policies This security setting determines if
digital certificates are processed when a user or process attempts to run software with an .exe file name
extension. This security setting is used to enable or disable certificate rules, a type of software restriction
policies rule. With software restriction policies, you can create a certificate rule that will allow or disallow
software that is signed by Authenticode to run, based on the digital certificate that is associated with the
software. In order for certificate rules to take effect, you must enable this security setting. When certificate rules
are enabled, software restriction policies will check a certificate revocation list (CRL) to make sure the
software’s certificate and signature are valid. This may decrease performance when start signed programs. You
can disable this feature. On Trusted Publishers Properties, clear the Publisher and Timestamp check boxes.
