checked using the authority certificates saved in the phone. Server certificates 
are not saved.
The security indicator 
 is displayed during a connection if the data 
transmission between the phone and the content server is encrypted.
The security icon does not indicate that the data transmission between the 
gateway and the content server (or place where the requested resource is 
stored) is secure. The service provider secures the data transmission between 
the gateway and the content server.
• Authority certificates are used by some services, such as banking services, for 
checking the validity of other certificates. Authority certificates can either be 
saved in the security module by the service provider, or they can be 
downloaded from the network, if the service supports the use of authority 
certificates.
• User certificates are issued to users by a certifying authority. User certificates 
are required, for example, to create a digital signature, and they associate the 
user with a specific private key in a security module.
