Trusted secure certificates are used when connecting to secure resources from the Android operating system. These certificates are encrypted on the device and may be used for Virtual Private Networks, Wi-Fi and ad-hoc networks, Exchange servers, or other applications found in the device.
Now we have to place our CA certificate inside the system certificate store located at /system/etc/security/cacerts/ in the Android filesystem. By default, the /system partition is mounted as read-only.
Trusted credentials. This setting lists the certificate authority (CA) companies that this device regards as "trusted" for purposes of verifying the identity of a server, and allows you to mark one or more authorities as not trusted. On some devices this menu item may be called "View securitycertificates" instead.
Digital certificates identify computers, phones, and apps for security. Just like you'd use your driver's license to show that you can legally drive, a digital certificate identifies your phone and confirms that it should be able to access something.
