Recently I bought a used iPhone for my daughter. After a factory reset, I went into its settings and noticed it still has an MDM certificate installed from the previous owner. For whatever reason, I am having difficulty removing this certificate and I would like to know if leaving this certificate on this iPhone would pose any danger, such as a remote takeover or leaking any of my daughter's information either to the original owner or a third party.<p>Is leaving an unknown MDM certificate from the previous owner on an iPhone a security risk? If so what is the best way to remove it?
According to Apple<p>> 1. All profiles can be removed by wiping the device of all data. [0]<p>Depending on the MDM profile there's a lot that can be done. Is the profile still active or just the certificate is hanging around?<p>[0]: <a href="https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/deployment/depc0aadd3fe/web" rel="nofollow">https://support.apple.com/en-ca/guide/deployment/depc0aadd3f...</a>
