Working With Secure Certificates
If your organization's VPN or Wi-Fi network relies on secure
certificates, you must obtain the certificates and store them in your
phone's secure credential storage before you can configure access
to that VPN or Wi-Fi network on your phone.
For specific instructions, contact your network administrator.
For more information about working with credential storage, see

To install a secure certificate from the microSD card
1. Copy the certificate from your computer to the root (that is,
not in a folder) of the microSD card.
