Omni Mobile release 2.3.1.71 and higher clients support commercial Secure
Socket Layer (SSL) certificates from vendors like Thawte and VeriSign and non-commercial (locally-generated) SSL certificates
on all supported mobile devices. In addition, by default, Omni Mobile uses
192-bit AES encryption of all password information at ALL TIMES on all
mobile platforms. By default, Windows Mobile 2002 (Pocket PC) ships
with and will recognize SSL certificates from the following providers:
Cybertrust, Thawte and Entrust. By default, Windows Mobile 2003 devices
recognize SSL certificates from the following providers: Cybertrust,
Thawte, Entrust, VeriSign, GlobalSign, Equifax.
Commercial Certificates:
If you are using one of the above commercial SSL certificate providers
on your GroupWise WebAccess server, as long as https:// is configured
under the Omni Mobile Tools/Options/ Server URL, your device will
automatically recognize the SSL certificate. All data communicated
between the device and Omni Mobile will be encrypted using the SSL
encryption certificate.
Non-commercial, server-generated SSL certificates:
Support for non-commercial, server-generated SSL certificates
is available for PocketPC and Windows Mobile devices but requires special configuration of the device. Please refer
to the "How to Enable SSL on Devices" instructions in the "Omni Mobile Users Guide". What if my device reports errors when trying to use a SSL certificate?
Please refer to "Common SSL Errors" and "Server SSL Certificate Error" forum posts that contain helpful troubleshooting tips.
