Browser security

Security features may be required for some services, such as online banking or shopping. For
such connections you need security certificates and possibly a security module, which may
be available on your SIM card. For more information, contact your service provider.

Security module

The security module improves security services for applications requiring a browser connection.
The security module may contain certificates as well as private and public keys. The certificates
are saved in the security module by the service provider.
Select Menu > Web > Settings > Security settings > Security module settings and from the
following options:
Security module details — to display the security module title, status, manufacturer, and
serial number
Module PIN request — to set the phone to ask for the module PIN when using services provided
by the security module. Enter the code, and select On. To disable the module PIN request,
select Off.
Change module PIN — to change the module PIN, if allowed by the security module. Enter the
current module PIN code, then the new code twice.
See also "Access codes," p. 10.

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 > Web > Settings > Security settings > User certificates or Authority certificates.
