Hello RulesEngine team,
We are evaluating RulesEngine for use in our future software development projects. Our company extensively uses Microsoft products and technologies, and one of our internal security and software governance requirements is that third-party DLLs used in our products must have a trusted digital signature.
While reviewing the official NuGet package:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/RulesEngine
and the GitHub repository:
https://github.com/microsoft/RulesEngine
we noticed that the generated DLLs do not appear to include a Microsoft digital signature, even though the project is hosted under the official Microsoft GitHub organization.
The DLLs we checked include:
RulesEngine.dll
FastExpressionCompiler.dll
FluentValidation.dll
System.Linq.Dynamic.Core.dll
We also noticed that some dependencies are not owned by Microsoft:
https://www.nuget.org/packages/FastExpressionCompiler/
https://www.nuget.org/packages/FluentValidation/
https://www.nuget.org/packages/System.Linq.Dynamic.Core/
Our question is:
Is there any plan to provide Microsoft digital signatures, or any official Microsoft-backed signature/certificate, for the DLLs produced by this project or for Microsoft-hosted/supported open-source projects such as RulesEngine?
Alternatively, is there any official guidance from the team on how organizations with strict DLL-signing requirements should consume this package and its dependencies?
This clarification would help us determine whether RulesEngine can be adopted in environments with strict security, compliance, and software supply-chain policies.
Thank you for your support and for maintaining this project.
Kind regards,
Ali Rasoulian
