implies that the identity of the publisher has been verified by
a certification authority.
2) In cases where user interface is displayed (which this example
does not do), WinVerifyTrust will check for whether the
end entity certificate is stored in the trusted publisher store,
implying that the user trusts content from this publisher.
3) The end entity certificate has sufficient permission to sign
code, as indicated by the presence of a code signing EKU or no
EKU.
