Security module

The security module improves security services for applications requiring a browser connection,

private and public keys. The certificates are saved in the security module by the service provider.
To view or change the security module settings, select Menu > Settings > Security >

Certificates
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. 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 device 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.
There are three kinds of certificates: server certificates, authority certificates, and user
certificates. You may receive these certificates from your service provider. Authority certificates
and user certificates may also be saved in the security module by the service provider.
To view the list of the authority or user certificates downloaded into your phone,
select Menu > Settings > Security > Authority certificates or User certificates.

provider secures the data transmission between the gateway and the content server.

buy and its price. The text to sign, which may include the amount and date, is displayed.
