my current company has stated the same as well. We are required to use tracking software on our personal devices for them to monitor. This software takes screenshots of all displays every 10 minutes, tracks mouse and keyboard activity, tracks the apps I’m using and for how long, and the same for any URLs visited.

Management can then view all of this information on an online dashboard.
