Security and data management
secure connection, a server may send a server certificate to
your device. Upon receipt, it is checked through an authority
certificate stored in your device. You receive notification if
the identity of the server is not authentic or if you do not have
the correct certificate in your device.
Download a certificate from a web site, or receive a certificate
as an e-mail attachment, or as a message sent through a
Bluetooth or infrared connection. Certificates should be used
when you connect to an online bank or a remote server to
transfer confidential information. They should also be used
if you want to reduce the risk of viruses or other malicious
software, and to check the authenticity of software when you
download and install software to your device.
Tip: When you add a new certificate, check its
authenticity.

Certificate trust settings

Trusting a certificate means that you authorise it to verify
web pages, e-mail servers, software packages, and other
data. Only trusted certificates can be used to verify services
and software.
Important: 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.
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
device are correct.
Before changing any certificate settings, you must make sure
that you really trust the owner of the certificate and that the
certificate really belongs to the listed owner.
To change the trust settings, select a certificate and
