Working with secure certificates
If your organization’s VPN or Wi-Fi networks rely on secure certificates, you must obtain the certificates and
store them in your phone’s secure credential storage, before you can configure access to those VPN or Wi-
Fi networks on your phone. If your network administrator instructs you to download the certificates from a
website, you’re prompted to set a password for the credential storage when you download the certificates.
For more information about working with credential storage, see Location & security settings.
Android supports DER-encoded X.509 certificates, saved in files with a .crt file extension (if your certificate
file has a .cer, .der, or other extension, you must change it to .crt or you wont be able to install it).
Android also supports X.509 certificates saved in PKCS#12 key store files with a .p12 extension (if your key
store has a .pfx or other extension, you much change it to .p12 or you won’t be able to install it). When you
install a certificate from a PKCS#12 key store,
Android also installs any accompanying private key or certificate authority certificates contained in the key
store.
Install a secure certificate from your phone’s USB storage or SD card
Copy the certificate from your computer to the root of its USB storage or SD card (that is, not in a folder).
