In review
Apple Developer enrollment
Enrollment is under Apple review. No public distribution certificate can be issued until Apple finishes this external step.
Worth the wait.
Safe to open.
DiskKind’s app is built and locally verified. The public download opens only after Apple Developer enrollment, Developer ID signing, notarization, stapling and Gatekeeper verification are complete.
Not started
Developer ID signing
The app and its nested Rust scanner will receive structurally correct Developer ID signatures and hardened runtime validation.
Not started
Apple notarization
The signed application and distribution image will be submitted to Apple for automated security checks.
Not started
Stapling
The accepted notarization ticket will be attached to the public distribution artifact for offline verification.
Not started
Gatekeeper verification
Only after offline Gatekeeper assessment passes will the site publish exact version, size and checksum details.
No unsigned public build.
The locally ad-hoc-signed development app is intentionally not offered here. That protects buyers from a build macOS cannot verify as a public release.
