In order to help provide the best possible security protection, your SHU-provided computing equipment requires a regular restart. Some staff machines are becoming vulnerable as they are never shut down. System updates and Sophos anti-viral software cannot update automatically unless the machine is restarted.
You should shut your system down at the end of each day.
If you would like to discuss this, or any other IT security queries, then contact the University IT Security Officer at itso@shu.ac.uk
