Installation of Trust Certificate

Kcell JSC informs its customers of the need to install Security Certificate on personal devices capable of connecting to the Internet

Due to the increase of identity and personal data theft, including stealing money from bank accounts, introduced a security certificate as an effective tool to protect the country’s information space from hackers, online fraudsters and other types of cyber threats.

The security certificate will help protect the information systems and data, as well as detect hacker and cyber-attacks of the Internet fraudsters on the country’s information space, private and banking sector, before they can cause damage.

Security certificate is a set of digital characters used to transfer traffic that contains protocols supporting encryption. Thus, it will allow local Internet users to be protected from hacker attacks and viewing illegal content.

Pursuant to the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan On Communications and clause 11 of Rules for Issuing and Applying Security Certificates, Kcell JSC informs its customers of the need to install Security Certificate on devices capable of connecting to the Internet. According to law, telecom network operators are to ensure that customers with whom the operators have service contracts are able to install the security certificate on their mobile devices.

We draw your attention to the fact that installation of the security certificate must be done on each device that will be used to access the Internet (iOS/Android mobile phones and tablets, Windows/MacOS personal computers and laptops).

Customers failing to install Security Certificate on their mobile devices may face technical limitations when accessing certain websites.
