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

If you click the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above, you can see 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 Vudu, such as the street name, city and country.
