Keep University devices updated while learning, teaching, and working remotely.
Now.
Every month, the University of Miami Information Technology (UMIT) department deploys new security updates and patches for University-managed Windows devices. While on a University campus, these updates are automatically installed, but require manual upkeep when a user is working, teaching, and learning remotely. Make sure your Windows device is secure by following steps outlined by UMIT. This includes checking to be certain Windows, virus and threat protection, and Office 365 applications are updated. For additional information or technical support, contact the UMIT Service Desk at 305-284-6565 or help@miami.edu.
