Connection security

With a secure connection and security certificates, you can safely browse the Internet.
If the security indicator (ICON) is displayed during a connection, the data
transmission between the device and the Internet gateway or server is encrypted.
The security icon does not indicate that the data transmission between the gateway
and the content server (where the data is stored) is secure. The service provider
secures the data transmission between the gateway and the content server.
Security certificates may be required for some services, such as banking services.
You are notified if the identity of the server is not authentic or if you do not have the
correct security certificate in your device. For more information, contact your service
provider.
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 in itself; the
certificate manager must contain correct, authentic, or trusted certificates
for increased security to be available. Certificates have a limited 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.
