As a first step to improve the security of our campus computers, as well as the campus network, we will be instituting a new policy to ensure that Macs on campus are up to date with all the latest security updates from Apple. This will bring our Mac computing experience more in line with our Windows computing experience.

Effective Monday, February 22, university-owned Mac computers will automatically be prompted to download and install critical operating system updates. If the download requires a restart, you will have the ability to postpone this restart up to two times. For the third time, the restart will proceed after you click okay.

Please contact the Technology Service Desk at 253.879.8585 or servicedesk@pugetsound.edu if you have any questions or concerns.
