Information about Compromised Devices
IT Services takes information security seriously. If we detect that a device on our network has potentially been compromised by malware, viruses, or other various forms of malicious software, we take steps to protect the network. Namely, we block the infected device from accessing the MU-Wireless Wi-Fi network until the malicious software has been purged.
If you have issues connecting to the Wi-Fi, your device may be compromised.
Check your email for a message from IT stating that your device was blocked. Follow the instructions in that email to get your device back on the network.
