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.

Select Menu > Settings > Security > Security module settings and one of the

following options:

Security module details — to display the security module title, 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.

Change signing PIN — to change the signing PIN code for the digital signature.

Select the signing PIN you want to change. Enter the current PIN code, then enter

the new code twice.

See also “Access codes,” p. 9.

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.
