Code Signing for Windows 10 and Windows 10 1607/Later

Interesting stuff:

https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/windows_hardware_certification/2016/07/26/driver-signing-changes-in-windows-10-version-1607/

Both are Windows 10 and yet they are different.

The good thing is that existing driver will still work.

"What about existing drivers? Do I need to re-sign these drivers to
get them to work with Windows 10, version 1607?

No. Existing drivers do not need to be re-signed. To ensure backwards
compatibility, drivers which are properly signed by a valid cross-signing
certificate issued prior to July 29th, 2015 will continue to pass signing
checks on Windows 10, version 1607."

In reality Windows 10 code signing becomes more and more
complicated and there are many discussions in OSR NTDEV here.
