5.16 Certificates
A public key is transmitted as part of a certificate. The certificates listed in the Certificates
tabs ensure that the submitted public key is, in fact, the public key that belongs to the sub-
mitter. The PDA checks that the certificate has been digitally signed by a certification
authority that the PDA explicitly trusts.
Your iKôn PDA has certificates already preinstalled in the unit. Personal certificates estab-
lish your identity, intermediate certificates, as the name suggests, identifies intermediate
certification authorities and root certificates establish the identity of the servers with which
you can connect.
