Known source but not from Google Play

Known source but not from Google Play

I need to distribute an internal enterprise app for Android and would
prefer not to use Google Play. There are around 12 000 users in the
organization and most of them have not turned on the checkbox for "Unknown
sources" in application settings. Is there a way around this? I am
considering options like:
Is it possible to sign the application using a globally trusted
certificate from like Verisign/Symantec or Thawte?
Is it possible to preload some kind of root certificate or public
certificate on the devices beforehand and in this way make the device
treat the apps I want to distribute to come from a known source?
