 ## Usage
 
@@ -19,6 +19,17 @@ This page documents the `inspec sign` command introduced in InSpec 5 and details
 
 A signed profile, or `.iaf` file, is an InSpec profile with a digital signature that attests to its authenticity. Progress Chef authored profiles are available as signed profiles starting from 2022.
 
+IAF files are not human-readable, but may be viewed using `inspec export`. Support for IAF v2.0 was added to InSpec 5.
+
+### Mandatory profile signing
+
+**Chef InSpec 6** and above has an optional setting that requires that all profiles are signed.
+If mandatory profile signing is enabled, InSpec will not execute functions with an un-signed profile and exits with exit code 6.
+
+To enable mandatory profile signing, set the environment variable `CHEF_PREVIEW_MANDATORY_PROFILE_SIGNING` to any non-empty value.
+
+If you need to bypass mandatory profile signing, use the `--allow-unsigned-profiles` CLI option or set the `CHEF_ALLOW_UNSIGNED_PROFILES` environment variable.
+
 ### How does Profile Signing Work?
 
 Profile signing uses a matched pair of keys. The _signing key_ is secret and is used to sign the profile. The _validation key_ is widely distributed and verifies the signed profile signature.
