Certificate Manager - Nokia 7710 User Manual

Certificate manager

Go to Desk > Control panel
With the Certificate manager application you can manage
digital certificates which you use when connecting to web
sites, mail servers, and when installing software. Digital
certificates may be used for:
• connecting to an online bank or another site or remote
server for actions that involve transferring confidential
information
• reducing the risk of viruses or other malicious software
and checking the authenticity of software when
downloading and installing it
Important: Note that 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 smartphone 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.
