Antivirus and Endpoint Security
- All users must keep ITS approved anti-virus screening software enabled on their computers with up-to-date virus pattern recognition files. This screening software must be used to scan all software coming from either third parties or other CSU departments, and the scanning must take place before the new software is executed. Users may not bypass scanning processes that could arrest the transmission of computer viruses. CSU has a site license for endpoint security antivirus software Cylance Protect. Systems must have Cylance running at all times.
- Although users are responsible for eradicating viruses from their systems whenever they have been detected, the Hub must be notified immediately at 678-466-4357 whenever a system has been infected. This is so that the Help Desk can ensure that no other infections takes place and that experts needed to eradicate the virus are promptly engaged.
