How To Use Credential Storage Settings On Samsung Galaxy Tab 2
Learn to use Credential storage settings on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.
Trusted Credentials
If a certificate authority (CA) certificate gets compromised or for some other reason you do not trust it, you can disable or remove it.
- From a Home screen, touch Apps > Settings > Security.
- Touch Trusted credentials.
- The trusted credentials screen has two tabs:
- System: Displays CA certificates that are permanently installed in the ROM of your device.
- User: Displays any CA certificates that you installed, for example, in the process of installing a client certificate.
- Touch a CA certificate to examine its details. A scrolling screen displays the details.
- Scroll to the bottom of the details screen and touch Disable to disable a System certificate or Remove to remove a User certificate.
Note: When you disable a system CA certificate, the Disable button changes to Enable, so you can enable the certificate again, if necessary. When you remove a user-installed CA certificate, it is permanently deleted and must be re-installed, if needed.
- Touch OK to return to the certificate list. When enabled, a check mark tick appears in the check box.
Install from Device Storage
- Install encrypted certificates from an installed memory card.
Note: You must have installed a memory card containing encrypted certificates to use this feature.
- From a Home screen, touch Apps > Settings > Security.
- Touch Install from device storage, then choose a certificate and follow the prompts to install.
Clear Credentials
- Clear stored credentials.
Note: This setting only appears if you have installed encrypted certificates.
- From a Home screen, touch Apps > Settings > Security.
- Touch Clear credentials to remove all certificates.
