Not a good solution but a decent one. Create a work profile on your phone, using Shelter (Fdroid, open source), and put all your work apps on that. Your data and processes are isolated and you can turn off all your work apps with a single tap. It's like a secondary virtual phone.
Wow thanks friend! Does the 2FA work in this silo?
Just like anywhere else. All it does is sandbox work apps from personal apps so they don't talk to eachother (not even screenshots!)
This is awesome!
As long as the work profile is on.
Thanks! I just installed it.
Can confirm it works. I have been doing it like this for the past 2 years.
This is awesome. Thank you my internet friend.
Don't mix business and personal.
Don't Install any corp app on a personal phone. No matter what.
This method basically is creating two phone with one. Why wouldn't this be a good solution with keeping business and personal separate?
If information is ever subject of a subpoena, your phone could be seized as evidence.... OS separation doesn't matter. Just like you wouldn't check corporate email or keep corp documents on your personal laptop...because your laptop could be seized for any corp legal action
Yeah that is a fair point.
I have never been involved in anything like that, so I don't know how big of a risk that actually is for most people.
And I would think as we get more and more cloud dependent any data on the phone would also be stored in company servers. So I am not sure the value a subpoenas for phones would be.
If it gets that far I would wonder if there could be a case for them of taking both personal and work phones as well just to be sure no one was talking outside of the company's standards communications.
Again I Have no idea how legally that would all go down, but I do think you being up a very good point the more speration you have between personal and work the less grounds legal action has to stand on to enter into your personal devices.
I agree but this is the next best option. This essentially creates a OS-level separation between business and personal apps.
