How To Use Trusted Credentials – Samsung Galaxy Tab 3
Learn how to use trusted credentials on your Samsung Galaxy Tab 3. If a certificate authority (CA) certificate gets compromised or for some other reason you do not trust it, you can disable or remove it.
- Touch 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 Turn off to disable a System certificate.
Note: When you disable a system CA certificate, the Turn off button changes to Turn on, so you can enable the certificate again, if necessary.
- Touch OK to return to the certificate list. When enabled, a check mark appears in the check box.
