Certificate manager

Digital certificates ensure that the web or WAP pages you visit,
or any software you install, really are created by the person you
expect.

Certificates may be present on the pages that you view or the
software that you download. Your P800 compares these
certificates with a set of certificates that are stored in

Certificate

manager

to ensure the authenticity of the page or software. If the

certificates do not match, your P800 informs you, and gives you
the following choices:

Prevent the page being loaded or the software being installed.

Continue at your own risk.

The certificates on your P800 have been created and issued by
an independent organisation that ensures their authenticity.

Security information

Security information is displayed when

Certificate manager

cannot be sure of the origin of the page or software. For
example, security information will be displayed if:

The certificate on a page has expired.

The identity of a software manufacturer cannot be verified.

Security information is also displayed when a certificate on your
P800 has:

Expired.

Been revoked by the independent organisation that issued it.
