Is it posible my device compromised through expired license mdm?

Somewhere in june I notice my iphone lag and several website such as icloud login take very long time to load. Then on setting i see there is my organisation mdm expired license and somehow the restricted app on mdm become unrestricted and can access all apps, Siri, Icloud. Is there someone having the same issues? Right now all of my socmed app like whatsapp, facebook are betas version and i did not register to be beta tester and developer program. However it feels like someone is tapping and monitor me through my personal apple account.

Among other potential causes for lagging, that can be a local Wi-Fi issue (with hardware or firmware or overload or interference), a problem with an add-on VPN or add-on security apps, a problem with a browser extension, or with specific slow websites. Apple servers do have occasional slowdowns, and Apple had some service outages just yesterday for instance.


Potentially also iPhone hardware problems, but those are usually more general in effects, and not tied to specific websites.


iOS 27 itself is just getting shaken out too.

You will want to address an expired MDM certificate with IT, and whatever other restricted-app or security-related questions you might have.


I’d have thought that IT would be your first stop for this too, so I’m left wondering if this MDM profile is from elsewhere. If you loaded an MDM profile from who-knows-where for who-knows-what, what associated apps might have access to and what your iPhone might allow is unclear.

You will want to contact your IT organization, and describe the issues.


If you have no IT organization, and are unclear on how you (also?) got third-party beta apps loaded (presumably from TestFlight?) loaded, I’d reset the iPhone and not restore a backup, and would change all passwords, passcodes, and related including your Apple Account password. I’d also verify all devices associated with the Apple Account are recognized. Enable two-factor authentication too, if not already enabled.

Ask your IT administrator.

There are no hack/malware/virus/spyware for a non jailbroken phone.
