   Whenever I ask Mastodon a question about IT I end up feeling like a woman asking a very specific question about SETI@Home scripting in a 1999 internet chatroom*.

   Anyway. Can the MS Teams and / or Okta apps be used to (partly) wipe data from an iPhone (without mdm).

   *hint: she will not receive an answer nor return. She will however receive tips on how a trackball is superior to a mouse.

     @Pepijn It *shouldn't* be possible, but I really don't trust Apple or Google not to have special relationships with MDM type companies to somehow allow that sort of evil. I would always demand a work device if employer insists on installing *any* app for work. Even if the app doesn't have permissions to do the wipe itself, using your personal device as part of work may make it evidence (thus confiscated) if company is investigated for any wrongdoing or there might be contractual terms requiring you to let them wipe it, etc.
