Is anyone facing any issue with certificate deployment in Android Profile owner enrolled devices? The browser apps on the device doesn’t seem to acknowledge the certificates deployed from the MDM portal. Users are getting a security warning when browsing our sites that use SSL certificates signed by our CA.

Are the browser apps inside or outside the ‘Work Profile’? Since the device is Profile owner enrolled, only the browsers inside the ‘Work Profile’ will have access to the relevant certificate store on the device. The Work Profile is a separate container on the device which is MDM managed, so it has its own everything.

Certificate authentication is widely available in Android. Even the browser does not have complete knowledge of it.
