July third-party application patch
ICIT will be issuing a monthly patch for third-party applications for most university-owned devices starting July 22. Please see more information on what is included in the patch and details about the process.
- mac OS devices will receive a pushed update that will run silently in the background starting July 22. Please see this article for more information on how Mac devices are impacted, particularly if you are working remotely.
- PC/Windows users can install the update starting Thursday, July 22 using the self-service option. This option allows users to decide the day and time they want to install the update prior to the pushed update on July 29. Before running the update you will need to close affected applications (Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox).
- If your PC/Windows computer has not been updated by Thursday, July 29, ICIT will push an update, which can be deferred for only 24 hours. For more information, please review the step-by-step instructions detailing the process for remote workers and devices on the campus network.
Those of you who manage computers for student workers/general office use, ICIT appreciates your attention to those computers as well. Lab and classroom computers will have an automatic patch installation starting Thursday, July 22 at 11 pm.
