System Center Endpoint Protection (SCEP) for Macs End-of-Life

Microsoft recently announced that they would be ending support for SCEP for Mac, Microsoft’s antivirus solution for university-owned Macs, on December 31, 2018.  The product will not immediately stop functioning, but it will no longer be updated with new signatures.  SCEP for MAC was a rebranded version of a product made by ESET and Microsoft has executed an agreement with ESET to provide enterprise customers ESET Endpoint Protection for one year as a bridging strategy.  ITS will support the migration of university-owned Macs to the supported ESET product while we explore and pursue a long-term antivirus solution.

For more information, please follow the detailed instructions on how to uninstall SCEP for Mac and install ESET. Click the green eligibility button and then select the appropriate installation option. Then you will see the instructions and download links.
