Microsoft Patch Tuesday
All School of Nursing domain machines will reboot after receiving critical security patches at 4:00 a.m. on Wednesday, September 13, 2017.
September 12, 2017On the 2nd Tuesday of each month, Microsoft releases critical security patches for servers and desktop/laptop computers. In order to reduce risk to School systems, ITS will deploy the patches to Nursing domain machines at 4:00 A.M. tomorrow morning; all machines will automatically reboot at that time.
In addition to the monthly Microsoft Patch Tuesday Updates, ITS will also apply weekly third party software patches overnight, every Tuesday. If you need access to network drives during that time, the virtual environment can be found here. Additionally, please also see the VDI Information/FAQ page located here.
As ITS learns of critical vulnerabilities for which emergency patches are available, we will keep you informed. The University provides Symantec Endpoint Protection at no cost to Faculty, Staff and Students; please contact the Service Desk if you need a copy.
