Digitally Signed Executables #17571

What language does this apply to? Each language.

Describe the problem you are trying to solve. I would like to be able to trust the executable file by looking at its digital signatures.

Describe the solution you'd like I would like to use digitally signed Windows executables of protoc.exe. The executables that Gradle tries to use with plugin com.gradle.protobuf are not digitally signed thus they are blocked by my company's protection system.

Describe alternatives you've considered N/A

Additional context Our firm wide app protection system blocks using protoc.exe, because it's not digitally signed and expects us to manually unblock it for each run.

While this is something we would like eventually, it is unlikely this is something we'll be able to get to this right now given staffing and priorities.
