Welcome to Cisco Clean Access
Starting in the fall of 2005, Information Technology Services (ITS) is
taking a big step towards substantially reducing the effect of viruses and
worms on our network. To protect student computers, and ultimately the
network we all share, we have installed a new network admissions system
called “Clean Access.”
Clean Access encompasses a new network system installed during the
summer. It is used in conjunction with a new software application at the
desktop called the “Clean Access Agent,” which ensures that all those
logging into the network have sufficient virus protection and system updates
installed.
Clean Access performs the following checks:
Validation Checks (performed weekly):
- Anti-Virus Software Vendor and Installation Check (Mandatory)
- Up-to-Date Anti-Virus Definitions (Mandatory)
- Automatic update enabled with Download Option (Mandatory)
- Spybot Search and Destroy (Optional)
