Trust and verification
Unsigned early releaseSecurity
The current Windows early release is unsigned. Its published SHA-256 checks the downloaded bytes, but a checksum alone does not prove publisher identity. Signed production packages remain a separate release gate.
Before installing
Checks before installation
- 01
Download only from the versioned GitHub release record linked on the Download page. Confirm that the release tag matches the site.
- 02
Compare the local ZIP’s SHA-256 with both the site and the release checksum file. A matching hash detects an altered or incomplete download; it is not a signature.
- 03
Expect an unsigned-app warning on Windows. Do not treat that warning as proof of safety. Signed, timestamped packages will have a separate publisher check when released.
Application boundary
How the local application is isolated
- EVT listens only on your computer, never on your LAN or the public internet.
- The website cannot reach, control or administer a running EV installation.
- Credentials are protected per installation and are never built into the installer.
- EVT is read-only decision support. It does not place, change or cancel EVE orders.
