Company Requiring Invasive MS app to use Teams/Outlook on Phone (infosec.pub)

My company just started requiring Microsoft Intune Company Portal app to use Teams and Outlook. From a friend in IT infosec at another company said the app can push apps, require certain settings, password requirements, or OSs, and can see a lot of stuff on your phone. I don't think this level of intrusion into my personal phone is warranted or ethical. Be warned. I'm just going to uninstall and suffer the internal political consequences.

This is how it used to be, then everyone screeched and hollered for BYOD so they could use their gaming laptops at work.

Never BYOD.

I never understood the byod hype. It is complete shit for both personal opsec and IT administration.
