Berkeley Security Software

The software must be installed on your university-owned computers by April 25.

To protect UC information and systems against increasing cyber threats against higher education, the UC President has instructed all UC campuses to adhere to new security requirements with clear consequences for non-compliance. The Berkeley Security Software provides a single installer with two components: BigFix for asset management and vulnerability identification and Trellix for Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) to enhance security incident response and containment.

Install the Berkeley Security Software on your university-owned computers by April 25. 

  • You do not need to take action if you have a campus-managed computer (aka Berkeley Desktop). Unsure if you have a campus-managed computer? Learn how to check here.
  • Installation times will vary based on hardware; we recommend setting aside 30 minutes.
  • Need help? Contact your Departmental IT Support channels or ITCS Support.
