Contents

Android uses certificates with a public key infrastructure for enhanced security on mobile devices. Organizations may use credentials to verify users’ identity when attempting to access secure data or networks. Organization members often must obtain these credentials from their system administrators.

What happens if I delete all certificates?

Removing all credentials will delete both the certificate you installed and those added by your device. … Click on trusted credentials to view device-installed certificates and user credentials to see those installed by you.

What happens when you clear credentials on Android?
