Overview
For Universal Controller and Universal Agent 7.6 and forward, the installation packages are PGP-signed for security and authentication.
Verifying the files with digital signatures helps mitigate the risk of downloading and installing malicious or compromised software.
You can download the public key here to verify packages.
This page will show you how the signature interaction works and how you can verify the files once you download them.
Checking Signatures
Each package has a corresponding .asc file (detached signature). For example, the release EXAMPLE FILE NAME would have a corresponding file, EXAMPLE ASC FILE NAME.
The example provided uses The GNU Privacy Guard. Any OpenPGP -compliant program should work successfully.
The following sample command checks the detached signature(EXAMPLE) against the corresponding release(EXAMPLE ASC).
