Certificate Management: When you go to secure websites, digital certifi-
cates are used to valid legitimate from nonlegitimate sites, thus ensuring
security for your personal information. When you tap this, you can see
which certificates have been approved by both the system (that is, what
B&N has installed) and what you have approved (usually occurs when you
visit a website and your receive that “trust this website’s certificate” infor-
mation.
If you have certificates you know about, have, and want to add to the NOOK
device, you can place them on a microSD card, insert that card, and choose
the Install from SD Card option here.
If you want to remove all certificates, tap Clear Credentials.

zone you need here, tap Show All World Time Zones to see a longer list.
