Authority certificates

For using some WAP services, such as banking services, you need security certificates. Using the
certificates can help you improve the security of connections between your phone and a WAP gateway
or WAP server, if the Connection security is set to On.
You can download authority certificate from a WAP page, if the WAP service supports the use of
authority certificates. After the download, you can view the certificate and then save or delete it. If you

server or WAP gateway certificate is not authentic or if you do not have the correct authority
