To gain access to WIFI at university I have to login with my user/pass credentials.
The certificate of their website (the local home page that asks for the credentials) is not recognized as a trusted certificate, so we install it separately on our computers.

If this procedure

incurred by the user: that of being

malicious server may in fact try very
easily attack type "man-in-the-middle"
