How is that keeping Microsoft from accessing your GPS, sensor data, wifi, camera/microphone etc? Sure, they can't get at SMS or your other apps and your work won't have access to your entire device but it means MS can still access your location (using GPS and nearby bluetooth/wifi), record audio/video, read/control sensors (accelerometer, proximity, gravity, temperature, pressure, magnetic field etc), have full network access, etc and can record and collect that data whenever they feel like it for the most part.
- cglong 2y agoThat's true with a separate work phone too right? And once I turn off the AWP for the day, all of that stops.
- autoexec 2y agoA work phone I could leave in a lead lined box until I needed to log into the company network. My personal device is often carried with me and in use at other times. If your IT people let you pause your work profile indefinitely that could help protect you though.
- zamadatix 2y agoThe IT people don't get to choose how long you pause your work profile, you do. If they want control over profile access then they need to manage the full device, not just have you run an app in a profile on it. If you plan on carrying a lead lined box with you everywhere you plan on authenticating for work you can do the same with your personal phone before you switch the work profile on.
- bongodongobob 2y agoThere's different kinds of intune enrollment. Generally if it's not a company phone, they can only see your IMEI, last 4 of your phone number, OS version etc. They'll be able to isolate and control the work apps but nothing else because it's in a separate profile.
