+<p>All Symbian applications must be signed before they can be installed.
+All applications which use <xref href="GUID-6971B0A2-F79B-4E05-8AF3-BB1FC1932A22.dita">capability</xref>-protected
+APIs, where the capability cannot be granted by the end user, have to be certified.
+Such certification can be obtained through <xref href="https://www.symbiansigned.com/" scope="external">Symbian
+Signed</xref>.</p>
+<p>Signing is a means of encoding a digital certificate into the application
+installation file. The certificate identifies the application’s vendor, and
+grants access to capabilities defined during the build process.</p>
+<p>The signing process is described in detail on the <xref href="https://www.symbiansigned.com/" scope="external">Symbian
+Signed</xref> website.</p>
+<section id="GUID-B9414AE8-820E-4CA5-A9C4-29560CD6F2EH"><title>Signing options</title>
+<p>If your application only needs <i>user capabilities</i> (<codeph>LocalServices</codeph>, <codeph>NetworkServices</codeph>, <codeph>ReadUserData</codeph>, <codeph>WriteUserData</codeph>, <codeph>UserEnvironment</codeph>, and<codeph>Location</codeph>),
+you can self-sign the application.</p>
+<note>
+<p>When the end users are installing a self-signed application, they are
+informed that the application is untrusted and may decide to abort the installation.
+In Nokia E-series devices the user must change a setting to allow self-signed
+applications to install.</p>
+</note>
+<p>Sign the <codeph>sis</codeph> <xref href="GUID-61EE2BE0-7B86-42CD-A03F-857DD8FAC246.dita">installation
+file</xref> with any private key. You can use the <xref href="GUID-557BF1DA-B6E8-521B-89F0-15C84E3BCB1A.dita">MakeKeys</xref> application
+to create the needed private key and, for example, <xref href="GUID-B20EE8A3-D7B2-5872-AF43-001A88C1A46E.dita">SignSIS</xref> to
+sign the application. Both applications are delivered with the SDK. For more
