Between 6:00 and 7:00 AM on Thur 8/2/18, ITS will perform routine maintenance on the Login infrastructure. During this maintenance period, there will be a brief 1-2 minute window when users will not be able to login to BigRedID based services such as Denison Apps, MyDenison, NoteBowl and other services.
If you experience login issues with BigRedID based services after this time, please contact the ITS Help Desk at 740-587-6395 or helpdesk@denison.edu.
On 8/2/18 ITS will release an upgrade to the McAfee Agent on Denison-owned Windows computers. This upgrade is “silent” and will not impact your ability to use your computer while it is happening. At some point during the upgrade process, you might notice a Windows notification regarding your antivirus protection being off. It should resolve itself after a short period of time once the new software version is installed and running. If the Windows notification stays there permanently, please contact the ITS Help Desk at helpdesk@denison.edu or 740-587-6395.

ITS will be performing maintenance on the system that provides storage services for Denison’s servers on Thursday, 8/2/18 from 5:00-7:00 AM.
While we don’t expect it to cause an outage, it would be best to not edit files over the network or submit information online during this time period as your work could be lost if a problem occurs.
This post will be updated when the work is complete. If you experience any network connectivity issues after this time, please contact the ITS Help Desk at 740-587-6395 or helpdesk@denison.edu.
Beginning Tuesday July 31, you will need to use Duo to approve logins to Denison web-based services like MyDenison and Denison Apps. This added layer of security makes it more difficult for potential intruders to gain access to your account and steal personal data or identity. While the easiest and preferred method to use Duo is with the Duo Mobile app on a smartphone, there are multiple ways to use Duo, even if you don’t have access to a mobile phone. If you have not yet enrolled in Duo, when you log in to MyDenison or Denison Apps, you will see a Duo window with a “Start Setup” button and will need to enroll before you can proceed. To learn more and enroll, please see this Help Desk Online FAQ.
If you have any questions or encounter any problems, please contact the ITS Help Desk at 740-587-6395 or helpdesk@denison.edu.
