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 SmartChip card. For more
information, contact your service provider.

Security module

The security module improves security services for applications requiring a browser
connection, and allows you to use a digital signature. 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.

To view or change the security module settings, select

Menu

>

Settings

>

Security

>

Security module sett.

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

.

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.

Digital signature

You can make digital signatures with your phone if your SmartChip card has a
security module. Using the digital signature can be the same as signing your
name to a paper bill, contract, or other document.

To make a digital signature, select a link on a page, for example, the title of the
book you want to buy and its price. The text to sign, which may include the amount
and date, is shown.

Check that the header text is

Read

and that the digital signature icon

is shown.

If the digital signature icon does not appear, there is a security breach, and you
should not enter any personal data such as your signing PIN.

To sign the text, read all of the text first, and select

Sign

.

The text may not fit within a single screen. Therefore, make sure to scroll through
and read all of the text before signing.

Select the user certificate you want to use. Enter the signing PIN. The digital signature
icon disappears, and the service may display a confirmation of your purchase.
