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. If
valid yet is shown even if the certificate should be
valid, check that the current date and time in your
device are correct.
