Chapter
7
Application Deployment
This chapter describes features in Android including new security features, how to package applications, and
procedures for deploying applications onto the device.

Security

The device implements a set of security policies that determine whether an application is allowed to run and, if
allowed, with what level of trust. To develop an application, you must know the security configuration of the device,
and how to sign an application with the appropriate certificate to allow the application to run (and to run with the
needed level of trust).

Secure Certificates

If the VPN or Wi-Fi networks rely on secure certificates, obtain the certificates and store them in the device's secure
credential storage, before configuring access to the VPN or Wi-Fi networks.
If downloading the certificates from a web site, set a password for the credential storage. The device supports X.509
certificates saved in PKCS#12 key store files with a .p12 extension (if key store has a .pfx or other extension, change
to .p12).
The device also installs any accompanying private key or certificate authority certificates contained in the key store.

Installing a Secure Certificate

Procedure:
1 Copy the certificate from the host computer to the root of the microSD card. See
for information about connecting the device to a host computer and copying files.
2
Touch .
3
Touch .
4
Touch Security.
5 Touch Install from SD card.
6 Navigate to the location of the certificate file.
7 Touch the filename of the certificate to install. Only the names of certificates not already installed display.
8 If prompted, enter the certificate's password and touch OK.
9 Enter a name for the certificate and touch OK. If a password has not been set for the credential storage, enter a
password for it twice and then touch OK.
The certificate can now be used when connecting to a secure network. For security, the certificate is deleted from
the microSD card.
