You must manually turn on trust for SSL/TLS when you install a profile that is sent to you via email or downloaded from a website.

If you want to turn on SSL/TLS trust for that certificate, go to Settings > General > About > Certificate Trust Settings. Under "Enable full trust for root certificates", turn on trust for the certificate.
