Virus Software

To protect your computer, the University has a license to put Symantec Endpoint on all University owned computers, as well as student computers and faculty/staff home computers.

There are two central servers that manage the Symantec program that is on your computer. The servers deliver new versions of the program and virus definition files to your computer as they become available. This applies to any student owned computer on campus, and all office and classroom computers on the main campus.

In addition, University owned computers are set to do periodic scans. The antivirus is always on and will scan emails and files as you open them.

Faculty and staff can obtain a copy of the Symantec Endpoint by logging into MyFSU, going to the Workplace tab, and look for the Computer Services channel. There is a link to Home CD site.
