It honestly hasn't been that much of an issue for me. Sometimes the server is down for a few minutes, an hour max but then things are back up and running quickly. The signing server is part of RIM's security system. It basically allows RIM to control the quality of applications. For example, in any software that proves malicious will get their developer's key instantly revoked - and the server won't side that developers applicaiton. Malicious apps can be instantly revoked by ALL device simply by putting that developer's certificate on a blacklist and pushing it down to all devices. To do security like this, you need a chain of certificate signings and a controlling server. And enterprises love security like that. |
