Some people at the office feel uncomfortable having to disable "macro security for outlook add-ins" in order to get my add-in to work.
How do I obtain a security certificate for my add-in so that it loads in spite of the security settings currently in place? Is it worth the trouble? Does it cost a lot of money?

Methods to Resolve The 'Certificate Not Verified' ErrorClick on the View Certificate button in the error dialogue box. Now, check the name in the Issued to Name section and to ensure that it has the same name as in the email server. If not, change it accordingly.
You need a code signing certificate for this. Various Certificate Authorities release them:
These are just two, but there are many more.
Of course, you can create your own code signing certificate (actually two, a root certificate and a code signing cert). But the downside is you will need to install your root cert on every computer where you install the addin.
