Application Signing
Signing your installer with a valid code signing certificate is one of the most important things that you need to do for production apps. Both IE SmartScreen as well as virus scanning software will give a significant amount of "points" to apps that are signed correctly, preventing your users from getting scary dialogs.
Acquire a code-signing certificate - it's recommended to get a Windows Error Reporting-compatible certificate, see this MSDN article for more information, then pass the -n parameter, which are the parameters you would pass to signtool.exe sign to sign the app.
Squirrel makes signing easy, as it signs all of your application's executables as well as the final generated Setup.exe.
An example invocation including both of these features would be something like:
PM> Squirrel --releasify MyApp.1.0.0.nupkg -n "/a /f CodeCert.pfx /p MySecretCertPassword"
