Many Nokia Series 40 and Series 60 phones include the Nokia Wallet application. On my Nokia 6600, the Wallet application is accessible via the Extras Wallet menu. The first time you use Wallet, you will be asked to create a wallet code, which is used to generate an encryption key. Then you can store small bits of data, such as web site passwords and bank accounts, in the wallet. The data stored in the Wallet application is encrypted and is accessible only to the person who knows the wallet code. On some recent phone models, the Wallet application can also integrate with the Services browser to save information you fill out on web forms.
If you key in an incorrect wallet code three times in succession, the Wallet application is blocked for five minutes. The next three incorrect entries of the code will double the blocking time.
If you need to encrypt entire datafiles on a Nokia Series 60 phone, third-party applications such as SmartCrypto from SymbianWare
(http://www.symbianware.com/product.php?id=scrypto60&pl=n6600) can help you. It encrypts any individual file on the Series 60 filesystem. Once the file is encrypted, you have to know the password to read its contents.
