Hey Etc99,


Is the iPhone your personal device or is it a device from your employment? If it's from your employment, you'll need to contact the system admin to help you with the certificate.


If it's your own device, follow the steps from this article here: Install or remove configuration profiles on iPhone


"If you want to turn on SSL/TLS trust for that certificate, go to Settings > General > About > Certificate Trust Settings. Under "Enable full trust for root certificates," turn on trust for the certificate.

iPhone Certificate Trust Settings


Apple recommends deploying certificates via Apple Configurator or Mobile Device Management (MDM). Certificate payloads are automatically trusted for SSL when installed with Configurator, MDM, or as part of an MDM enrollment profile."

Cheers!
