Subsequently, you must enter your PIN or
password each time you power on your
phone, to decrypt it.

Work with certificates

You can use digital certificates to identify
your device for a variety of purposes, includ­
ing VPN or Wi­Fi network access as well as
authentication to servers by apps such as
Email or Chrome. To use a certificate to iden­
tify your device, you must obtain it with help
from your system administrator, and install it
in your device's trusted credential storage .
Android supports DER­encoded X.509 cer­
tificates, saved in files with a .crt or .cer file
extension. If your certificate file has a .der or
other extension, you must change it to .crt or
.cer or you won't be able to install it.
Android also supports X.509 certificates
