This is exactly why I’m so paranoid about account and device separation.
I don’t even trust Git profiles. I buy a new license for GitKraken at any job I go to, even if I could avoid it; to me the possibility of accidentally trying to commit to work GitHub with my personal GitHub or vice verse is not worth it.
It’s the same with Microsoft accounts and their infamously bad-tech-debt-caused spaghetti.
Like if you try login to Outlook on iOS and you get a threatening message to the effect of “your system administrator will be able to remotely control and wipe your entire device if you proceed”. If it’s even a possibility that an incompetent or malicious IT department wipes your personal device, then no thank you.
See also that HN thread where a father let his child use his laptop, where they signed into their Microsoft school account, and somehow his personal Microsoft account was merged into their school account and from what I could tell he was never able to fix it and the school IT department didn’t care.
Not only on iOS, also Outlook on Android does the same. Ironically, Teams doesn't try the same trick, so if they have some emergency while I'm away, my folks know to only try sending me stuff in Teams, as Outlook will never be installed here.
Depends on the org I think now the controls are more fine grained. For example I have teams and outlook on my personal phone and the only thing they can do is delete the apps, taking a screenshot is blank, copy/paste doesn’t work etc.
MAM vs MDM. MAM is good when you want your developers to be reachable on Slack but they all (for good reason) refuse to install an MDM on a personal device—at least that seems to be how my employer feels.
