Research direction
The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating WinGet's existing Group Policy handling and configuration-file validation, then determine how a signed-file requirement should be represented and enforced. Done means the policy is defined, enforced consistently, and covered by tests, but the issue provides no acceptance details.
