Facts to know

• Updates to the desktop image are usually only done on Saturday.

Testing ideas

How many simultaneous connections? If I'm logged in at work (Dell Wyse), can I log in from home (browser)?

...

• Does is it retained over time, through reboots?

Try out Creative Cloud software.

• Info from Friday morning, 5/8/15, with KeeneS:
  • May switch Acrobat to the Serialized Creative Cloud.
  • Serialized Creative Cloud replacing current virtual application deployment this weekend.

Issues Oliver is having

NEW reported issue to CIT, as of 5/8/15:

...

• Ideally webcams should be using signed Java applications, if they must use Java at all. (Self-signing is not sufficient; must get a certificate!). Especially Cornell-based web cams.
• Asking web visitors to perform a configuration work-around (which doesn't even work in all instances, such as within Desktop Everywhere!), or even worse, ask them to lessen their security, is not a reasonable alternative.

...

Action step

Have someone inform webcam of evolved expectations.

• Should it be the IT Security office, who can confirm this request is valid, and if so, has the credibility?

...

Friday morning, 5/8/15, with KeeneS:

• For most some of these issues, can only be solved with boot-up scripts because of where data regarding stored defaults are stored.
• Service uses Redirected Profile, which includes App data (roaming).
  • It does not include App data (local).
• For Acrobat specifically, service may switch application to the one available in the serialized (licensed) Creative Cloud, which would eliminate the "remember" box.

Consider doing

• For Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) Manager, the IT Security Office should sign the application they are hosting.
  • They should get a certificate, since self-signing is not sufficient nowadays.\
  • The IT Security office should be very well aware of evolved expectations.

Original report

• CIT does not have any stock scripts for this kind of specialized functionality. Thus, will just deal with it "as is".
