Is it legal for Hillary to require remote-wipe of her staffers' phones?
My gf is a paid staffer for the Hillary Clinton campaign and she told me they required remote-wipe access to her (personal) phone. Is this legal? How is it done, technically?
The idea is the company saves money by loading a secure workspace to your personal device instead of paying for a corporate device.
Companies setup a mdm server such as blackberry, good, airwatch, etc that basically send a remote wipe command. You would then download an app to activate it.
It depends on the company but check if there is an opt out clause or demand the company to provide you a corporate phone as you don't have a personal device.
It's ok in most cases since the company is paying for your phone bill as compensation so you can just get a second personal device.
I'm not sure about the legal issues, especially if you can't opt out of it.
And it can be easily be done with a exchange server.
Do you imagine that Trump required that kind of actions in his business he has built over the last 20-30 years.
Only bureaucracy works this way, to hide grey stuff from the public.
