vCenter Configuration Manager Security Environment Requirements
7.3 Unknown software publisher warnings during ClickOnce installations are not dis-
missed unless the publisher is VMware
When ClickOnce software is installed through the VCM UI, IE will warn the user if the software is from an untrusted
publisher (one whose Software Publisher Certificate is not in the trusted software publisher's certificate store).
Despite the warning, the user can still choose to allow the software installation. However, this should not be done
unless the software publisher is VMware. VMware software is identifiable as signed with the VMware Software
Publisher Certificate.

7.4 Automatic upgrade of the VCM Remote Client is not used to install software

VCM Remote can push new VCM Remote Agents to the VCM Remote clients. This mechanism should not be used to
distribute software other than VCM Remote.
