Tech-Tips: Caution about Software Installations and Updates
Thank you Ken Bolia for this helpful document:
"Generally the IT department grants the primary faculty/staff user “administrator privilege” over their assigned computer. This allows faculty/staff the ability to update software, add new software installations, and grants the ability to change computer settings in which they would otherwise be denied access. However, this level of control, if not used carefully, can quickly lead to an accumulation of various “malware” installations which pose a security risk to the primary user and the district as a whole. The following tips will help you avoid infecting your computer."
