Cybersecurity Tip of the Week – Downloading Unapproved Software

|

Be cautious about downloading third-party antivirus applications and software. Many times, when you download a new application, the manufacturer “bundles” other downloads with it. A lot of the time, unless you uncheck some boxes, they automatically download. This disrupts our CarbonBlack and sends alerts for unauthorized software.

Be cautious of downloading ANY software or applications that can harm your device and our network.
