What is the antivirus protection at the RWTH?

In response to the increasing threat posed by viruses, worms and the like, RWTH Aachen University has been participating in various state license agreements that enable the cost-effective use of professional endpoint security solutions since 2006.

Under the current agreement, RWTH Aachen University organizations can use Cisco Secure Endpoint software, a cloud-supported security solution for detecting viruses, malware and other attack scenarios, free of charge.

Note: In contrast to the previous national license agreements with Sophos, no licenses for private use by students or employees are included into the current agreement.
