Security Indicator; Authority Certificates - Nokia 8910i User Manual

W A P s e r v i c e s

■ Security indicator

If the security indicator is
displayed during a WAP connection,
the data transmission between the
phone and the WAP gateway or WAP
server (identified by the IP address
setting in the Edit active service
settings menu) is encrypted.
However, the security indicator does
not indicate that the data
transmission between the gateway
and the content server (the location
where the requested resource is
stored) is secure. It is up to the
service provider to secure the data
transmission between the gateway
and the content server.

■ Authority certificates

Authority certificates are used by
some WAP services, such as banking
services, for checking signatures,
server certificates (used to
determine the identity of the WAP
server) or other authority
certificates.
You can download the 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 save the
certificate, it is added to the
certificate list on the phone.
