connecting to an online bank or another site, or to a remote
server for actions that involve transferring confidential
information.

risk of viruses or other malicious software and be sure of the
authenticity of software when downloading and installing
software.
Select Menu > Settings and Phone > Phone mgmt. >
Security settings > Certificate management and select
the desired certificate type.
Digital certificates do not guarantee safety; they are used to
verify the origin of software.
Important: Even if the use of certificates makes the risks
involved in remote connections and software installationconsiderably 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.

							Protected content
Digital rights management (DRM) protected content, for
example some media files, such as images, music, or video
clips, comes with an associated licence that defines your
rights to use the content.
You can view the details and status of the licences, and
reactivate and remove licences.
Manage digital rights licences
Select Menu > Settings > Phone > Phone mgmt. >
Security settings > Protected content.
Digital rights management
Content owners may use different types of digital rights
management (DRM) technologies to protect their intellectual
property, including copyrights. This device uses various types
of DRM software to access DRM-protected content. With this
device you can access content protected with WMDRM 10,
OMA DRM 1.0, and OMA DRM 2.0. If certain DRM software fails
to protect the content, content owners may ask that such DRM
softwares ability to access new DRM-protected content be
revoked. Revocation may also prevent renewal of such DRM-
protected content already in your device. Revocation of such
DRM software does not affect the use of content protected
with other types of DRM or the use of non-DRM-protected
content.
Digital rights management (DRM) protected content comes
with an associated licence that defines your rights to use the
content.If your device has OMA DRM-protected content, to back up
both the activation keys and the content, use the backup
feature of Nokia Ovi Suite.
If your device has WMDRM-protected content, both the
licence and the content will be lost if the device memory is
formatted. You may also lose the licence and the content if
the files on your device get corrupted. Losing the licence or
the content may limit your ability to use the same content on
your device again. For more information, contact your service
provider.
Some licence may be connected to a specific SIM card, and the
protected content can be accessed only if the SIM card is
inserted in the device.
