OIT information about ZotDefend
Here are the OIT published pages about the ZotDefend project:
Two stages to the ZotDefend project
Only stage 1 is being implemented right now:
1. Minimum Requirements for the UCOP Mandate
The UCOP Cybersecurity Mandate requires compliance by May 2025. This will be our primary area of focus.
We will use BigFix to install the following packages:
- Trellix HX
- Tenable Nessus
- Cisco VPN
BigFix Installer
You can download the installer for BigFix for your computer ahead of time, or we can help you with this during our appointment (see the above Booking link).
- For Mac: BigFix-SocSci-Mac.zip
- For Windows: BigFix-SocSci-Win.zip
We can provide the password to open the .zip archives during our appointment with you.
2. Enforcement of more strict security standards
This will not be implemented right away, but in the future OIT is discussing requiring the following additional security policies:
- the above minimum packages, plus
- Duo Desktop
- Full Disk Encryption
- MS Defender
- Jamf/Intune device management enrollment
They would enforce this by blocking access to certain UCI websites if you do not meet these security requirements.
