Connection security
If the security indicator ( ) is displayed
during a connection, the data
transmission between the device and the
internet gateway or server is encrypted.
The security icon does not indicate that
the data transmission between the
gateway and the content server (where
the data is stored) is secure. The service
provider secures the data transmission
between the gateway and the content
server.
Security certificates may be required for
some services, such as banking services.
You are notified if the identity of the
server is not authentic or if you do not
have the correct security certificate in
your device. For more information,
contact your service provider.
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.
