The main purpose of the digital certificate is to ensure that the application belongs to the entity to which the certificate was issued. The Intel Corporation digital certificate does not guarantee that a signed application is safe to run, but rather informs the user that the software was digitally signed by Intel Corporation and verified by a trusted Certificate Authority (CA).

“Intel, the world leader in silicon innovation, develops technologies, products, and initiatives to continually advance how people work and live. Founded in 1968 to build semiconductor memory products, Intel introduced the world's first microprocessor in 1971.
Our consumer research is focused on the individual, wherever they may be, whatever they may be doing to develop experiences and devices that they will truly love. Throughout our daily experiences of work, play, learn, relax, socialize and all those in-between, technology can help us be more productive, become more deeply engaged in our activities, be more fulfilled, and simplify our everyday lives. Context-awareness can make computing devices more responsive to individual needs and help to intelligently personalize programs and services. Using self-learning mechanisms, sensor inputs, and data analytics, Intel research teams are engaged in a number of projects that promise to take machine learning beyond the lab to practical, real-world applications.”
