its validity is checked using the authority certificates that are saved on the phone. Server certificates are not saved. The security indicator is displayed during a connection if the data transmission between the phone and the content server is encrypted. • Authority certificates are used by some services, such as banking, for checking the validity of other certificates. Authority certificates can either be saved in the security module by the service provider, or they can be downloaded from the network, if the service supports the use of authority certificates. • User certificates are issued to users by a Certifying Authority. User certificates are required, for example, to create a digital signature. Important: Note, however, that even if the use of certificates makes the risks involved in remote connections and software installation considerably smaller, they must be used correctly in order to benefit from increased security. The existence of a certificate does not offer any protection by itself; the certificate manager must contain correct, authentic, or trusted certificates for increased security to be available. Important: Certificates have a restricted lifetime. If Expired certificate or Certificate not valid yet is shown even if the certificate should be valid, check that the current date and time in your phone are correct. Important: Before changing these settings, you must make sure that you really trust the owner of the certificate and that the certificate really belongs to the listed owner. Copyright © 2004 Nokia.
