My friend has an Android/Galaxy phone, and he works for a large company that is prominent in our area.
On occassion (and only rarely), he used to use it at work for texting and, less often, phone calls. A few months ago, his employer cracked down on the use of cell phones at work and deemed that it should only be used for urgent calls. For the most part, my friend complied with these rules.
One day, however, he tried to send a text message to a family member, and a warning from his employer popped up on his cell phone!
How was it even possible for his employer to display a message on his personal cell phone? Was the phone infiltrated?
Has the private information (photos, videos, emails, etc) in his phone been compromised? What should he do at this point? This happened earlier this month.
