     5 The Symbian OS security architecture fundamentally consists of two high level components:
       
     6 
       
     7 @li Certificate management (certman)
       
     8 
       
     9 @li Cryptography (cryptalg)
       
    10 
       
    11 Together these modules/components form the basis of a number of higher level components, which include:
       
    12 
       
    13 @li Certificate management control panel item (UI to certificate management allowing control of trusted root certificates)
       
    14 
       
    15 @li Software installation (@ref authentication / @ref digital_signature "digital signatures")
       
    16 
       
    17 @li Secure comms (@ref SSL / @ref TLS, @ref WTLS, @ref IPSec, etc.)
