    Can length 1024-bit MobiControl root certificates in old v11-v13 MoibControl implementations be eventually uninstalled without requiring device re-enrollments?

    Many of my corporate and governmental customers have new internal security policies to phase out all weak length 1024-bit certificates in the IT infrastructure.   Many asked about migration of their existing v11/v12/v13 length-1024-bit  MobiControl root certificate to length-2048-bit.  As they have hundreds or thousands of devices enrolled & deployed, they cannot tolerate large-scale device recall and re-enrollment.   Someone from Soti support team informed me about the procedure to use MCadmin to install, bind and push the new 2048-bit root certificate to all enrolled devices.  However , he hadn't confirmed with me whether or not the old 1024-bit root certificate can eventually be removed from all the migrated devices and from the v11/v12/v13 MobiControl server. He then left Soti in early 2018 with the question not completely answered. Does Soti provide a complete SEAMLESS MIGRATION solution to TOTALLY phase out its old weak root-certificate for old customers to pass more modern security policies?

    Can enrolled devices upgraded to the forthcoming iOS12 stay under full control in an old (v10-v13) implementation using 1024-bit MobiControl Root Certificate?

    Forthcoming iOS12 requires all MDM/EMM solutions to use an SSL certificate with minimum key-length of 2048-bit and using at least SHA2 hashing.  Is there similar new requirement(s)  for the root certificate in the MDM server?    In particular, can all iOS 10/11 enrolled devices stay under full control by a v10-13 MobiControl server using length-1024-bit self-signed root certificate, when such devices are upgraded to iOS12?
