Microsoft Authenticator is about to wipe work accounts from jailbroken/rooted phones automatically 👏.

No IT config needed. 🔥

3-phase rollout starting Feb 2026:
⚠️ Warn → 🚫 Block → 🗑️ Wipe

Let your help desk and security teams know.

@merill I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say that users that jailbreak their own private device wouldn't use MS Authenticator, and on company devices jailbreak wasn't allowed anyway.

@silhouette @merill people are expected to put this on their personal devices

@fluffykittycat @merill ah, the famous "use your own private resources for the benefit of the company".
