SIEN S.A. - 9% Detection Rate *

Did you just stumble upon a download or a file on your computer that has a digital signature from SIEN S.A.? Some of the security products refers to the detected files as PUP.Optional.Iminent and Iminent (fs). The detection rate for the SIEN S.A. files collected here is 9%. Please read on for more details.

You will typically notice SIEN S.A. when running the file. The publisher name is then displayed as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

You can view the additional details from the SIEN S.A. digital signature with the following steps:

  1. Open up Windows Explorer and locate the SIEN S.A. file
  2. Right-click the file and select Properties
  3. Click the Digital Signatures tab
  4. Click the View Certificate button

Here's a screenshot of a file that has been signed by SIEN S.A.:

As you can see in the screenshot above, Windows reports that "This digital signature is OK". This means that the file has been published by SIEN S.A. 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 see the address for SIEN S.A., such as the street name, city and country.

VeriSign Class 3 Code Signing 2010 CA and GlobalSign CodeSigning CA - SHA256 - G2 has issued the SIEN S.A. certificates. You can also examine the details of the issuer by clicking the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above.
