Code Signing Private Keys Are Everywhere
People hide keys under their welcome mats, under the potted plant next to the front door, above the door jam, or maybe under that fake-looking rock next to the front walk. But why would they hide their front door key in such obvious places? If I were a burglar, these are the first places that I would check (well, I would first check to see if the front door was even locked).
But some people are smarter than this. Instead of putting the spare key in an obvious hiding place, they make a few copies and hand them out to the dog sitter, the next-door neighbor, their boyfriend/girlfriend, or the handyman fixing the washing machine. Before they know it, they’ve lost track of who they have given keys to and their house is vulnerable once again.
