Asynchronous DCAuth-driven communication requires that parties authenticate each other with a secret pre-shared cryptographic key. This provides an extra protection layer for the protocol and diminishes the risk of the private key becoming abused by foreign parties. Use this property to provide the pre-shared key identifier, and use external_crypto_key_secret to pass the key itself.

The same KeyID/KeySecret pair should be used on the DCAuth side for the signing requests to be accepted.

Note: The KeyID/KeySecret scheme is very similar to the AuthKey scheme used in various Cloud service providers to authenticate users.

Example: signer.ExternalCrypto.KeyID = "MainSigningKey"; signer.ExternalCrypto.KeySecret = "abcdef0123456789";

external_crypto_key_secret Property

The pre-shared key used for DC request authentication.

Certificate Revocation Lists (CRLs) and Online Certificate Status Protocol (OCSP) responses serve the same purpose of ensuring that the certificate had not been revoked by the Certificate Authority (CA) at the time of use. Depending on your circumstances and security policy requirements, you may want to use either one or both of the revocation information source types.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

Note: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

Note: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

timestamp_server Property

The address of the timestamping server.

Syntax

def get_timestamp_server() -> str: ...
def set_timestamp_server(value: str) -> None: ...

timestamp_server = property(get_timestamp_server, set_timestamp_server)

Default Value

""

Remarks

Use this property to provide the address of the Time Stamping Authority (TSA) server to be used for timestamping the signature.

SecureBlackbox supports RFC3161-compliant timestamping servers, available via HTTP or HTTPS.

If your timestamping service enforces credential-based user authentication (basic or digest), you can provide the credentials in the same URL:

http://user:password@timestamp.server.com/TsaService

For TSAs using certificate-based TLS authentication, provide the client certificate via the tls_client_chain property.

If this property is left empty, no timestamp will be added to the signature.

Starting from summer 2021 update (Vol. 2), the virtual timestamping service is supported, which allows you to intervene in the timestamping routine and provide your own handling for the TSA exchange. This may be handy if the service that you are requesting timestamps from uses a non-standard TSP protocol or requires special authentication option.

To employ the virtual service, assign an URI of the following format to this property:

virtual://localhost?hashonly=true&includecerts=true&reqpolicy=1.2.3.4.5&halg=SHA256

Subscribe to on_notification event to get notified about the virtualized timestamping event. The EventID of the timestamping event is TimestampRequest. Inside the event handler, read the base16-encoded request from the EventParam parameter and forward it to the timestamping authority. Upon receiving the response, pass it back to the component, encoded in base16, via the TimestampResponse config property:

component.Config("TimestampResponse=308208ab...");

Note that all the exchange with your custom TSA should take place within the same invocation of the Notification event.

The hashonly parameter of the virtual URI tells the component to only return the timestamp message imprint via the EventParam parameter. If set to false, EventParam will contain the complete RFC3161 timestamping request.

The includecerts parameter specifies that the requestCertificates parameter of the timestamping request should be set to true.

The reqpolicy parameter lets you specify the request policy, and the halg parameter specifies the hash algorithm to use for timestamping.

All the parameters are optional.

timestamp_type Property

Sets the signature timestamp type.

Syntax

def get_timestamp_type() -> int: ...
def set_timestamp_type(value: int) -> None: ...

timestamp_type = property(get_timestamp_type, set_timestamp_type)

Default Value

2

Remarks

Use this property to specify the signature timestamp type. This can either be a "trusted" timestamp (a weird name applied by the Authenticode specification to a standard RFC 3161 timestamp), or a "legacy" timestamp (an older variant of the base64-encoded TSP protocol).

Default Value

""

Remarks

A list of ciphersuites separated with commas or semicolons. Each ciphersuite in the list may be prefixed with a minus sign (-) to indicate that the ciphersuite should be disabled rather than enabled. Besides the specific ciphersuite modifiers, this property supports the all (and -all) aliases, allowing all ciphersuites to be blanketly enabled or disabled at once.

Note: the list of ciphersuites provided to this property alters the baseline list of ciphersuites as defined by tls_base_configuration.

tls_revocation_check Property

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Syntax

def get_tls_revocation_check() -> int: ...
def set_tls_revocation_check(value: int) -> None: ...

tls_revocation_check = property(get_tls_revocation_check, set_tls_revocation_check)

Default Value

1

Remarks

Specifies the kind(s) of revocation check to perform.

Revocation checking is necessary to ensure the integrity of the chain and obtain up-to-date certificate validity and trustworthiness information.

This setting controls the way the revocation checks are performed for every certificate in the chain. Typically certificates come with two types of revocation information sources: CRL (certificate revocation lists) and OCSP responders. CRLs are static objects periodically published by the CA at some online location. OCSP responders are active online services maintained by the CA that can provide up-to-date information on certificate statuses in near real time.

There are some conceptual differences between the two. CRLs are normally larger in size. Their use involves some latency because there is normally some delay between the time when a certificate was revoked and the time the subsequent CRL mentioning that is published. The benefits of CRL is that the same object can provide statuses for all certificates issued by a particular CA, and that the whole technology is much simpler than OCSP (and thus is supported by more CAs).

This setting lets you adjust the validation course by including or excluding certain types of revocation sources from the validation process. The crcAnyOCSPOrCRL setting (give preference to the faster OCSP route and only demand one source to succeed) is a good choice for most typical validation environments. The "crcAll*" modes are much stricter, and may be used in scenarios where bulletproof validity information is essential.

Note: If no CRL or OCSP endpoints are provided by the CA, the revocation check will be considered successful. This is because the CA chose not to supply revocation information for its certificates, meaning they are considered irrevocable.

Note: Within each of the above settings, if any retrieved CRL or OCSP response indicates that the certificate has been revoked, the revocation check fails.

trusted_cert_bytes Property

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

Syntax

def get_trusted_cert_bytes(trusted_cert_index: int) -> bytes: ...

Remarks

Returns the raw certificate data in DER format.

The trusted_cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the trusted_cert_count property.

This property is read-only.

trusted_cert_handle Property

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object.

Syntax

def get_trusted_cert_handle(trusted_cert_index: int) -> int: ...
def set_trusted_cert_handle(trusted_cert_index: int, value: int) -> None: ...

Default Value

0

Remarks

Allows to get or set a 'handle', a unique identifier of the underlying property object. Use this property to assign objects of the same type in a quicker manner, without copying them fieldwise.

When you pass a handle of one object to another, the source object is copied to the destination rather than assigned. It is safe to get rid of the original object after such operation. pdfSigner.setSigningCertHandle(certMgr.getCertHandle());

The trusted_cert_index parameter specifies the index of the item in the array. The size of the array is controlled by the trusted_cert_count property.

validation_log Property

Contains the complete log of the certificate validation routine.

Syntax

def get_validation_log() -> str: ...

validation_log = property(get_validation_log, None)

Default Value

""

Remarks

Use this property to access the chain validation log produced by the class. The log can be very useful when investigating issues with chain validation, as it contains a step-by-step trace of the entire validation procedure.

This property is read-only.

config Method

Sets or retrieves a configuration setting.

Syntax

def config(configuration_string: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

config is a generic method available in every class. It is used to set and retrieve configuration settings for the class.

These settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.

To set a configuration setting named PROPERTY, you must call Config("PROPERTY=VALUE"), where VALUE is the value of the setting expressed as a string. For boolean values, use the strings "True", "False", "0", "1", "Yes", or "No" (case does not matter).

To read (query) the value of a configuration setting, you must call Config("PROPERTY"). The value will be returned as a string.

do_action Method

Performs an additional action.

Syntax

def do_action(action_id: str, action_params: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

do_action is a generic method available in every class. It is used to perform an additional action introduced after the product major release. The list of actions is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier (case insensitive) of the action is provided in the ActionID parameter.

ActionParams contains the value of a single parameter, or a list of multiple parameters for the action in the form of PARAM1=VALUE1;PARAM2=VALUE2;....

extract_async_data Method

Extracts user data from the DC signing service response.

Syntax

def extract_async_data(async_reply: str) -> str: ...

Remarks

Call this method before finalizing the asynchronous signing process to extract the data passed to the ExternalCrypto.Data property on the pre-signing stage.

The Data parameter can be used to pass some state or document identifier along with the signing request from the pre-signing to the completion async stage.

sign Method

Calculates and adds a signature to the executable.

Syntax

def sign() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to create a new Authenticode signature over the executable as per the configuration of the component.

sign_async_begin Method

Initiates the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

def sign_async_begin() -> str: ...

Remarks

When using the DC framework, call this method to initiate the asynchronous signing process. Upon completion, a pre-signed copy of the document will be saved in output_file (or output_stream). Keep the pre-signed copy somewhere local, and pass the returned string ('the request state') to the DC processor for handling.

Upon receiving the response state from the DC processor, assign the path to the pre-signed copy to input_file (or input_stream), and call sign_async_end to finalize the signing.

Note that depending on the signing method and DC configuration used, you may still need to provide the public part of the signing certificate via the signing_certificate property.

Use the ExternalCrypto.AsyncDocumentID property to supply a unique document ID to include in the request. This is helpful when creating batches of multiple async requests, as it allows you to pass the whole response batch to sign_async_end and expect it to recover the correct response from the batch automatically.

AsyncState is a message of the distributed cryptography (DC) protocol. The DC protocol is based on the exchange of async states between a DC client (an application that wants to sign a PDF, XML, or Office document) and a DC server (an application that controls access to the private key). An async state can carry one or more signing requests, comprised of document hashes, or one or more signatures produced over those hashes.

In a typical scenario you get a client-side async state from the sign_async_begin method. This state contains document hashes to be signed on the DC server side. You then send the async state to the DC server (often represented by the DCAuth class), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the sign_async_end method.

sign_async_end Method

Completes the asynchronous signing operation.

Syntax

def sign_async_end(async_reply: str) -> None: ...

Remarks

When using the DC framework, call this method upon receiving the response state from the DC processor to complete the asynchronous signing process.

Before calling this method, assign the path to the pre-signed copy of the document obtained from the prior sign_async_begin call to input_file (or input_stream). The method will embed the signature into the pre-signed document, and save the complete signed document to output_file (or output_stream).

Note that depending on the signing method and DC configuration used, you may still need to provide the public part of the signing certificate via the signing_certificate property.

Use the ExternalCrypto.AsyncDocumentID parameter to pass a specific document ID if using batched AsyncReply. If used, it should match the value provided on the pre-signing (sign_async_begin) stage.

AsyncState is a message of the distributed cryptography (DC) protocol. The DC protocol is based on the exchange of async states between a DC client (an application that wants to sign a PDF, XML, or Office document) and a DC server (an application that controls access to the private key). An async state can carry one or more signing requests, comprised of document hashes, or one or more signatures produced over those hashes.

In a typical scenario you get a client-side async state from the sign_async_begin method. This state contains document hashes to be signed on the DC server side. You then send the async state to the DC server (often represented by the DCAuth class), which processes it and produces a matching signature state. The async state produced by the server is then passed to the sign_async_end method.

sign_external Method

Signs the document using an external signing facility.

Syntax

def sign_external() -> None: ...

Remarks

Use this method to create an Authenticode signature using an external signing facility for the cryptographic computations. SignExternal delegates the low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. This method is useful if the signature has to be made by a device accessible through a custom or non-standard signing interface.

When all preparations are done and hash is computed, the class fires on_external_sign event which allows to pass the hash value for signing.

timestamp Method

Use this method to add a timestamp to a new or to an existing signature.

Syntax

def timestamp() -> None: ...

Remarks

Call this method to timestamp the signature(s). If only one of the existing signatures should be timestamped, specify its index using the signature_index property.

Use the timestamp_server property to provide the address of the TSA (Time Stamping Authority) server which should be used for timestamping. Use the timestamp_type property to specify the type of timestamp to create.

If a timestamp already exists, this will be handled according to the value of the TimestampConflictResolution config property.

update Method

Update an existing signature (or all the signatures) by adding or removing its (their) custom unsigned attributes.

Syntax

def update() -> None: ...

Remarks

Call this method to add one or mode custom unsigned attributes to an existing signature (specify its index using the signature_index property) or to all the existing signatures (set signature_index to -1).

Use the custom_unsigned_attributes property to provide new attributes to be added. If an unsigned attribute with the same OID already exists, this will be handled according to the value of the AttributeConflictResolution config property.

If the custom_unsigned_attributes property is empty, all the existing unsigned attributes in the specified signature (or all the signatures) will be removed.

on_chain_element_download Event

  @property
  def ca_cert_rdn() -> str: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_chain_element_needed() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerChainElementNeededEventParams], None]: ...
@on_chain_element_needed.setter
def on_chain_element_needed(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerChainElementNeededEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

on_chain_validation_progress Event

This event is fired multiple times during chain validation to report various stages of the validation procedure.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_kind() -> str: ...

  @property
  def cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_cert_rdn() -> str: ...

  @property
  def action() -> int: ...
  @action.setter
  def action(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:

@on_chain_validation_progress.setter
def on_chain_validation_progress(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerChainValidationProgressEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to be notified about chain validation progress. Use the Action parameter to alter the validation flow.

The EventKind parameter reports the nature of the event being reported. The CertRDN and CACertRDN parameters report the distinguished names of the certificates that are relevant for the event invocation (one or both can be empty, depending on EventKind). Use the Action parameter to adjust the validation flow.

on_error Event

Information about errors during Authenticode signing.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerErrorEventParams(object):
  @property
  def error_code() -> int: ...

  @property
  def description() -> str: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_error() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerErrorEventParams], None]: ...
@on_error.setter
def on_error(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerErrorEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event is fired in case of exceptional conditions during binary processing.

ErrorCode contains an error code and Description contains a textual description of the error.

on_external_sign Event

Handles remote or external signing initiated by the SignExternal method or other source.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerExternalSignEventParams(object):
  @property
  def operation_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def hash_algorithm() -> str: ...

  @property
  def pars() -> str: ...

  @property
  def data() -> str: ...

  @property
  def signed_data() -> str: ...
  @signed_data.setter
  def signed_data(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_external_sign() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerExternalSignEventParams], None]: ...
@on_external_sign.setter
def on_external_sign(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerExternalSignEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

Assign a handler to this event if you need to delegate a low-level signing operation to an external, remote, or custom signing engine. Depending on the settings, the handler will receive a hashed or unhashed value to be signed.

The event handler must pass the value of Data to the signer, obtain the signature, and pass it back to the class via the SignedData parameter.

OperationId provides a comment about the operation and its origin. It depends on the exact class being used, and may be empty. HashAlgorithm specifies the hash algorithm being used for the operation, and Pars contains algorithm-dependent parameters.

The class uses base16 (hex) encoding for the Data, SignedData, and Pars parameters. If your signing engine uses a different input and output encoding, you may need to decode and/or encode the data before and/or after the signing.

A sample MD5 hash encoded in base16: a0dee2a0382afbb09120ffa7ccd8a152 - lower case base16 A0DEE2A0382AFBB09120FFA7CCD8A152 - upper case base16

A sample event handler that uses the .NET RSACryptoServiceProvider class may look like the following: signer.OnExternalSign += (s, e) => { var cert = new X509Certificate2("cert.pfx", "", X509KeyStorageFlags.Exportable); var key = (RSACryptoServiceProvider)cert.PrivateKey; var dataToSign = e.Data.FromBase16String(); var signedData = key.SignHash(dataToSign, "2.16.840.1.101.3.4.2.1"); e.SignedData = signedData.ToBase16String(); };

on_notification Event

This event notifies the application about an underlying control flow event.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerNotificationEventParams(object):
  @property
  def event_id() -> str: ...

  @property
  def event_param() -> str: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_notification() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerNotificationEventParams], None]: ...
@on_notification.setter
def on_notification(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerNotificationEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The class fires this event to let the application know about some event, occurrence, or milestone in the class. For example, it may fire to report completion of the document processing. The list of events being reported is not fixed, and may be flexibly extended over time.

The unique identifier of the event is provided in the EventID parameter. EventParam contains any parameters accompanying the occurrence. Depending on the type of the class, the exact action it is performing, or the document being processed, one or both may be omitted.

This class can fire this event with the following EventID values:

on_start Event

This event is fired when the class is about to start the signing process.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerStartEventParams(object):
  @property
  def specified_checksum() -> int: ...

  @property
  def actual_checksum() -> int: ...

  @property
  def is_signed() -> bool: ...

  @property
  def cancel() -> bool: ...
  @cancel.setter
  def cancel(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_start() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerStartEventParams], None]: ...
@on_start.setter
def on_start(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerStartEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event marks the start of the signing process over a certain file.

SpecifiedChecksum is the checksum specified in the file itself, ActualChecksum is the actual checksum computed by the class, IsSigned specifies whether the file is already signed, and Cancel allows to stop the operation.

on_timestamp_request Event

Fires when the class is ready to request a timestamp from an external TSA.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTimestampRequestEventParams(object):
  @property
  def tsa() -> str: ...

  @property
  def timestamp_request() -> str: ...

  @property
  def timestamp_response() -> str: ...
  @timestamp_response.setter
  def timestamp_response(value) -> None: ...

  @property
  def suppress_default() -> bool: ...
  @suppress_default.setter
  def suppress_default(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_timestamp_request() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTimestampRequestEventParams], None]: ...
@on_timestamp_request.setter
def on_timestamp_request(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTimestampRequestEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

Subscribe to this event to intercept timestamp requests. You can use it to override timestamping requests and perform them in your code.

The TSA parameter indicates the timestamping service being used. It matches the value passed to the timestamp_server property. Set the SuppressDefault parameter to false if you would like to stop the built-in TSA request from going ahead. The built-in TSA request is also not performed if the returned TimestampResponse parameter is not empty.

on_tls_cert_needed Event

Fires when a remote TLS party requests a client certificate.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ca_names() -> str: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_tls_cert_needed() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_needed.setter
def on_tls_cert_needed(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertNeededEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event fires to notify the implementation that a remote TLS server has requested a client certificate. The Host parameter identifies the host that makes a request, and the CANames parameter (optional, according to the TLS spec) advises on the accepted issuing CAs.

Use the tls_client_chain property in response to this event to provide the requested certificate. Please make sure the client certificate includes the associated private key. Note that you may set the certificates before the connection without waiting for this event to fire.

This event is preceded by the on_tls_handshake event for the given host and, if the certificate was accepted, succeeded by the on_tls_established event.

on_tls_cert_validate Event

This event is fired upon receipt of the TLS server's certificate, allowing the user to control its acceptance.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams(object):
  @property
  def server_host() -> str: ...

  @property

def on_tls_cert_validate() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_cert_validate.setter
def on_tls_cert_validate(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSCertValidateEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event is fired during a TLS handshake. Use the tls_server_chain property to access the certificate chain. In general, classes may contact a number of TLS endpoints during their work, depending on their configuration.

Accept is assigned in accordance with the outcome of the internal validation check performed by the class, and can be adjusted if needed.

on_tls_established Event

Fires when a TLS handshake with Host successfully completes.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def version() -> str: ...

  @property
  def ciphersuite() -> str: ...

  @property
  def connection_id() -> bytes: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_tls_established() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_established.setter
def on_tls_established(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSEstablishedEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application about a successful completion of a TLS handshake.

The Version, Ciphersuite, and ConnectionId parameters indicate the security parameters of the new connection. Use the Abort parameter if you need to terminate the connection at this stage.

on_tls_handshake Event

Fires when a new TLS handshake is initiated, before the handshake commences.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

  @property
  def abort() -> bool: ...
  @abort.setter
  def abort(value) -> None: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_tls_handshake() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_handshake.setter
def on_tls_handshake(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSHandshakeEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

The class uses this event to notify the application about the start of a new TLS handshake to Host. If the handshake is successful, this event will be followed by the on_tls_established event. If the server chooses to request a client certificate, the on_tls_cert_needed event will also be fired.

on_tls_shutdown Event

Reports the graceful closure of a TLS connection.

Syntax

class AuthenticodeSignerTLSShutdownEventParams(object):
  @property
  def host() -> str: ...

# In class AuthenticodeSigner:
@property
def on_tls_shutdown() -> Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]: ...
@on_tls_shutdown.setter
def on_tls_shutdown(event_hook: Callable[[AuthenticodeSignerTLSShutdownEventParams], None]) -> None: ...

Remarks

This event notifies the application about the closure of an earlier established TLS connection. Note that only graceful connection closures are reported.

AuthenticodeSigner Config Settings

The class accepts one or more of the following configuration settings. Configuration settings are similar in functionality to properties, but they are rarely used. In order to avoid "polluting" the property namespace of the class, access to these internal properties is provided through the config method.
