Scheduled

As part of ongoing efforts to protect the university community and systems, Northeastern is installing the Falcon software from CrowdStrike on all university-managed computers. This software is meant to protect computers from malicious activities. Computer users, particularly Mac users, may receive system notifications from "Falcon Notifications" as a result. This is expected behavior and no action is required. If action is required, ITS will reach out directly with guidance and support.

If you have any questions, please contact the Office of Information Security, ois@northeastern.edu.
