Authority certificates
In order to use some WAP services such as banking services, you need an authority 
certificate. Using the certificate can help you to improve the security of 
connections between your phone and a WAP gateway or WAP server, if the 
Connection security
 option is set to 
On
.
You can download the certificate from a WAP page if the WAP service supports 
the use of security certificates. After the download, you can view the certificate 
and then save or delete it. If you save the certificate, it is added to the list of 
certificates in the phone.
You can only be sure that a WAP gateway or WAP server is the one it claims to be 
after its identity has been checked against the corresponding certificate in the 
phone. 
You will see a note on the phone display if the identity of the WAP server or WAP 
gateway cannot be verified, the WAP server or WAP gateway certificate is not 
authentic or if you do not have the right certificate in your phone. 
To view the list of security certificates:
In the 
Services
 menu, select 
Settings
 and then 
Authority certificates
.
Security icon

transmission between the phone and the WAP gateway or WAP server, identified 
by the 
IP address
 setting in the 
Connection settings
, is encrypted and secure.
However, the security icon does not indicate that the data transmission between 
the gateway and the content server (place where the requested resource is stored)
