I'm running iOS version 17.5.1 on my iPhone and the trust store version is 2024040500 and trust asset version is 1003.

If you reset your iPhone and it requires a password, then you have just met activation lock, or a backup that was restored (as part of a restoration that was not mentioned) had a passcode set, or the passcode was set at install or reinstall.

Passcodes can also be required on supervised devices, and passcodes can be required by Apple when certain features are enabled.

If you can reproducibly demonstrate some other behavior resulting in a passcode being set, you’ll want to present that information.

Whatever y’all are reading about the trust store is doing y’all a disservice, too. Trust stores are a fundamental part of all modern operating systems, and all trust stores work the same way, and all trust stores are protected against unauthorized modifications. And if an attacker has access sufficient to modify the trust store, they’re assuredly not going to want to change the trust store version.

And if any of y’all have an attacker that can modify the trust store, y’all are extremely valuable to an exceedingly well-funded attacker, and are far beyond the sort of security help that can be offered around here. And such attacks are not going to change the trust store version shown from a common one appropriate for whatever OS version in use.

The trust store version is seemingly entirely unrelated to claims in this thread, and the trust store is protected akin to the rest of iOS.

The trust store version string used by Apple is a fairly common construct used in computing, and is constructed from the date the trust store was updated. In this case, year 2024, month 04, day 05, and an update within that same day of 00.

For,whst Spple suggests doing to secure an environment: Personal Safety User Guide - Apple Support

If reported security issues have been ongoing for six months, a year, or longer, and with multiple discussions with Apple, or various postings with suggestions here or in other forums, or with other security or support providers, then those reported security issues will not be resolved here, by us. There won’t be new or different suggestions here. Nothing new here that you have not already heard about, considered, and implemented as appropriate. You’ll want to try a different approach. Whether that is forensics, or learning about security implementations and exploitation, or consulting with specialists?

Which network monitor would that be? Vendor, model, version?

Have you contacted the network monitor vendor, and asked them for assistance?

Remotely identifying host computer software is indirect and error-prone at best.

me also!7-8 apple idscompromised messing with emails and old phone numbers i cant remember are logged into them . apple will not help me so ive came here to learn im about to give up every phone iget seems to remotely by someone that has something to hide from me obviously is compromised from an old iphone X , i know they had at one time, thr use of my stolen android, or remotely accessing me from MAC loosing battle but i bet the caches are ripping my reputation along with probably generated revenue somehow. they need to be tracked down and JAILED.

we dint know that to be 100 percent true, also people in your past has been known for doing things like this. they are logging in with my ids limitung my apps store apps google play and hideing apps in apps from me, setting up screen restrictions turning on facetime worhout knowledge downloading my searches facetime text messages etc to upload all info to social platforms normally sicj gambling gamers or ppl selling u out for smear campaigns , sorry your going through this

that blue number 2024040500 u listed above is a message center for leaving messages just FYI. my vm has always been compromised since i owned a iphone i believe people whom we know that does these things isntfor a good reason hope you figure it out let me know if u do

Do we all have the same ex?!

I have the same store version number and asset number. Now I’m wondering if it matters that it different from the number posted on apple. I talked with apple and the lady didn’t even know what the trust certificate was…. I’m here for the answer. Hope yours is resolved

And it will Only get Worse my friend, what you just mentioned had me believing that I was hallucinating or something when my Brand new iP15Pro did all that & then some!

I’m also constantly prompted to do things with my Mac (I Don’t Own one!) ie: last week my network monitor noted I had updated Sonoma OS for my Mac?! Yeah, that too but in addition, I have 9 Very good laptops, 2 newest, which show a Hidden Network having Full Signal in a rural area Stronger than my Asus router in my House! Have y’all had your PCs mixed into your Apple gear (my watch AirPods & phone) or vice versa? That blew me away!!
