IT: Cylance Protect
Introducing CylancePROTECT and CylanceOPTICS
The Cooper Union is pleased to announce a major step forward in our digital security, antivirus, and anti-malware protection. In the coming months, IT will be rolling out CylancePROTECT to all faculty and staff computers.
Why Cylance?
Cylance uses AI Driven Threat Protection. CylancePROTECT works where most attacks occur - at the endpoint - for better efficacy, faster resolution, and less disruption.
