Everything about privacy (the confidentiality pillar of security) -- but not restricted to infosec. Offline privacy is also relevant here.

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] Thais Blog Post is 7 years old and a lot has changes singe then. The mentioned android administrator profile is deprecated and replaced bz a much user friendlier version. If done right ( aka competent IT, segregation profiles, dual sim) there is nothing speaking against using a personal phone for company stuff. But: as an end user it’s very hard to know what the tea to do in the first place. So I’d say be conscious and if IT can show and proof what they are doing, you’re fine on android.
