October Security Patches Available

10/13/2017

October’s security patches are available as of Monday, Oct. 16, and will automatically install on all University PCs after 4 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 20. 

The patches are for Microsoft Windows. SLU users who wish to install the updates themselves can find step-by-step instructions through Information and Technology (ITS).

Security and application updates help protect PCs from vulnerabilities and guard against viruses.

Updates do not apply until the computer is rebooted. Users should restart their computers on Friday, Oct. 20. ITS recommends rebooting computers several times per week as a best practice.

For more information or assistance, contact the ITS Service Desk at 314-977-4000.
