Why does ResNet require my computer to have antivirus software and security updates?
Our campus network must be protected from internal and external virus and security threats. To help ensure a virus-free network, antivirus software is required to be installed on all campus computers. To assist students who may not have antivirus software, we provide the McAfee Enterprise antivirus software at no charge. You can download and install it from our Software Downloads page. Without adequate protection, worms and other malicious software have opportunities to infect your system. In turn, the traffic generated by infected computers can slow the entire campus network to a crawl. By installing antivirus software and staying up-to-date with the latest operating system security updates, you are not only securing your personal computer, you are also contributing to the stability and security of the campus network.
