Abstract
Embodiments describe techniques for authenticating software artifacts in a secure manner that does not require the software notarizer accessing or storing any software artifact data. A proof algorithm may be utilized by the software vendor and the software notarizer in generating the disclosure-free notarization certificate. The same proof algorithm may then be utilized by the software consumer during validation of the software artifact. These techniques may improve the software security since access to data from the software artifact is limited to the software vendor and the software consumer.
