Scheduled

ITS will be performing emergency maintenance to the campus network authentication servers (Clearpass) on Mon., Nov. 2 from 10:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. The team will be patching Clearpass due to a vulnerability and registering new devices during this window will not work. This is the beginning of the new AI scanning that is going to present major vulnerabilities in unexpected places that require fast patching. This system is critical to the institutions network functionality so we are taking the recommended steps to address the issue as soon as possible. If you encounter any issues after the scheduled maintenance, please contact the Technology Help Desk (781-736-4357 or help@brandeis.edu).
