server (identified by the IP address in the Edit active service settings) is
encrypted.
However, the security indicator does not indicate that the data
transmission between the gateway and the content server (the location
where the requested resource is stored) is secure. It is up to the service
provider to secure the data transmission between the gateway and the
content server.

shopping services on a WAP site. For such connections you need security
certificates and probably a security module which may be available on
your SIM card. For more information, contact your service provider.
Security module

module can contain user and/or authority certificates as well as private

SIM card issuer or the service provider.
