Keeping University Devices Secure and Up to Date
To better protect university data and improve your experience, all university-owned devices are being brought under a standardized device management system. This update ensures that your device receives important security protections, automatic updates, and easier access to approved software — while keeping sign-in simple and familiar. The applied settings align with university policy on systems that handle public and internal use only data. The goal is to make your work smoother, safer, and more reliable, with minimal disruption to your day-to-day routine.

MyApps
MyApps, CWRU's virtual desktop environment, recently updated the platform that drives the service. While the MyApps interface will look very similar, the client on your computer and the storage location will change. This will not affect how you access MyApps via the web portal. It’s important to take steps now to ensure continued access. This transition is a significant step toward enhancing the performance and accessibility of university resources for everyone.
