I work in a school system. We recently got an e-mail from our IT department announcing that all personal devices used to check school Google based Gmail MUST be password protected. If not protected by a certain date, we would no longer be able to access our mail.
This got me wondering how they know whether my device is protected. We then got a warning from our faculty association to never use any personal device to access work Gmail as the IT folks will have access to your personal data.
My question is, just what can my IT department see regarding my account if I leave my phone logged in to Gmail? I'm not a perv and I have nothing concerning really but on principle, I'd rather not expose myself to any hacking or investigating.
