Browser security

Security features may be required for some services, such as

banking services or online shopping. For such connections

you need security certificates and possibly a security module,

which may be available on your SIM card. For more

information, contact your service provider.
To view or change the security module settings, or to view a

list of authority or user certificates downloaded to your

device, select

Auth. certificates

, or

User certificates

.

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.
