We have been using CyUSB.DLL with our VC# program that interfaces with our product using a PSoC5.  We are using Generic HID.  Now the Cyber Cops are telling us we need a signed DLL.  Considering CyUSB is so old, is there another option that is already signed?

Mike.

Hi @MiSt_296941 ,

I already see you have raised a similar issue on an older thread : Solved: Should we use Cyusb.dll with VC# for a PSoC5 HID a... - Cypress Developer Community

Here, we have mentioned that CyUSB.dll is obsolete and we recommend you to use Windows HID libraries for your application. Most of the Windows DLLs are usually signed.

To check if the HID DLLs are signed or not, you can follow -> right click on the DLL -> Properties and check if there is a Digital Signatures tab. If the tab doesn't exist, the DLL is not signed. You can find more information about this here : Here’s how to detect whether an assembly is digitally signed (using C#)

Please go through this and let us know if this helps.

Best Regards,

Aashita
