Canva Publisher Information

Did you just find a download or a file on your computer that has been digitally signed by Canva? If so, please read on.

You will typically notice Canva when double-clicking to run the file. The publisher name shows up as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

  2. Right-click the file and select Properties
  3. Click on the Digital Signatures tab

As you can see in the screencap above, the Windows OS reports that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by Canva and that no one has tampered with the file.

If you click the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above, you can examine all the details of the certificate, such as when it was issued, who issued the certificate, how long it is valid, etc. You can also examine the address for Canva, such as the street name, city and country.

Sectigo Public Code Signing CA R36 and DigiCert Trusted G4 Code Signing RSA4096 SHA384 2021 CA1 has issued the Canva certificates. You can also examine the details of the issuer by clicking the View Certificate button shown in the screencap above.
