Vulnerability Management Program initiated

In a continuing effort to improve Rensselaer's cyber security posture, the DotCIO is initiating a vulnerability management program.   A vulnerability is any weakness in a system or process that leaves information security exposed to a threat.  This program aims to reduce risk to the Institute by identifying vulnerabilities and ensuring remediation, aiming to reduce the negative impact on the availability, integrity and confidentiality of Rensselaer data and IT infrastructure.

Crowdstrike Falcon

Rensselaer requires CrowdStrike Falcon, a next-generation antivirus product, to be used on all Institute-owned devices.

Software Consulting

Client (Desktop) Support can help evaluate and track and/or assign licenses for specific departments and develop and also maintain some software and middleware.

Wireless Network (rpi_netreg)

Wireless devices that do not support WPA2 Enterprise may connect to rpi_netreg, which is an unsecured/unencrypted wireless network.  MAC address registration is required before connecting.

Photography and Portraits

Services include portrait and still photography, including "headshots" for Rensselaer faculty and staff.
