Just a reminder, especially in this wild time we live in. DO NOT INSTALL WORK MDM ON YOUR PERSONAL DEVICE.
If your work requires Microsoft Intune or similar MDM, to get email/teams/slack. don’t accept it. It opens your device up for them to access private data and disable/delete your phone (even if they say they wont, they can)

@[email protected] my employer recently refreshed phones and the new ones come with MDM installed by default. I carefully read the privacy policy and they explicitly say that in a justified case they’re allowed to read your private data and can lock/delete the phone if necessary. Nope, my private data wont be on that device.
That’s exactly why we write those policies. To let people know not to put their private shit on the devices.
I never had to open up a phone yet to access any data, and I don’t expect I ever will. Even if I did, I’m not going to snoop around, I’m just going to get the data the company needs.
Yet, I still advise any new employee not to put their private shit on the device.
I have had to delete phones remotely though. Tough luck if your famiz photos are on it, not my problem.
