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] @[email protected] I actually went through this with the IT at our current company when I enrolled. MDM is quite appropriate for us, we manage people's money. I also have some experience in iOS device management.

As far as I know, these concerns are wildly exaggerated for iOS. It wasn't true in 2018 when this was written (read further down to the comments) and it's far less true now.

IME users are about 1000x more likely to be compromised by some free-to-play game or social network
