Effective Tuesday, August 16, 2022, Information Technology will be moving all UTC computers to Microsoft Defender, the built-in antivirus and malware protection for Windows. IT is also working on developing a Mac installation of Microsoft Defender which will be installed on UTC Macs in the upcoming weeks.
Any Malwarebytes clients currently managed by UTC, including most university-owned Windows and Mac computers, will be removed on Tuesday, August 16, 2022, starting at 5:00 p.m. Once complete, you may need to reboot your computer. No further action will be required.
