Screenconnect Sunsetting Its On-Premise Code Signing Certificates

ConnectWise, the provider of ScreenConnect remote support software, has recently withdrawn on-premise code signing certificates for its agent installations. This change means that users relying on this solution will need to either acquire their own costly code signing certificates or migrate to the company’s cloud-based offering by July 7th, 2025. The decision impacts organizations using ScreenConnect for remote support and maintenance, requiring them to adapt their current practices to continue receiving software updates and security patches.
