Recommended Software

ISS recommends either Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition, Norton Antivirus or McAfee VirusScan

• Symantec Antivirus Corporate Edition is now available free from ITS! We have set up a centralized server in the college to support it as a managed product. We have also begun installing it as part of our standard install for new computers.
