If you own a used iPhone and it has an MDM lock on it, chances are that your device is under a company portal that restricts access to all your files, apps, and data.

This can prevent you from using your device to the fullest. In this article, we will explain in detail what a company portal is, and how to remove it from your iPhone using 2 ways.

What is the company portal?

Many companies use mobile device management to help control access to corporate data, resources, and apps.

To enroll the device to gain access to these resources, employees need to use what's called a company portal.

But the organizations need to pay for the services offered by MDM providers and the IT administrator of the company can then set up the company portal before using it. 

What exactly is the role of a company portal? Well, it helps the company:

  • Enroll the device to gain access to corporate resources.
  • log in to corporate resources using company-issued certificates.
  • Browse and install approved business apps from your IT department.
  • Remotely erase all the sensitive data from it, if the device is lost or stolen.

However, it can be troublesome for some users that don't want to give access to their devices.

Conclusion

If you have decided to purchase a pre-owned iPhone or iPad, always check for the company portal lock and make sure the device does not have an MDM lock.

But, if you have already made the purchase, then unlock the device by contacting the owner and asking their IT department to remove the company portal.
