If you are referring to the SMIME cert...


How to delete root certificates from your iPhone or iPad

  1. Launch Settings from your Home screen.
  2. Tap on General.
  3. Tap on Profile. (If you don't see Profile it means you have nothing to delete or worry about!)
  4. Tap on the profile you want to delete.
  5. Tap Delete profile.
  6. Enter your passcode if prompted.
  7. Tap Delete to confirm.



Email certificates, also known as SMIME certificates, are digital certificates that can be used to sign and encrypt email messages. When you encrypt an email using an email certificate, only the person that you sent it to can decrypt and read the email.
