Information Security and Information Technology Services (ITS) would like to remind you that every week, Microsoft Defender will be completing a full scan of Wichita State-owned computers starting at 3 a.m. on Thursdays.
Please make sure your computer remains powered on to allow the scan to run. If your computer is turned off during the scheduled time, the scanning will start as soon as your computer turns on.
There should be no impact to the end user when the scan occurs during the scheduled time. However, there may be a slight decrease in device performance should the scan run during work hours.
Please note, the Microsoft Defender scan is applied to all Wichita State-owned devices, without exception.
For questions, contact the ITS Help Desk at 316-978-4357, option 1, or helpdesk@wichita.edu.
