In this window, click the update tab and verify the Repository URL of our new ePO Server is:

NOTE: Your McAfee Suite should be called McAfee Endpoint Protection. If it is displayed as anything else, click here to jump to the Get Help section.

If you do not see a red shield with a white M (McAfee) and only see a blue and white shield with a V (VirusScan Enterprise), you are almost there but will need to take action (See Assistance below).

If you do not see either one of these shields and you are using a University-owned machine, click here to jump to the Get Help section.

To check your windows system please see McAfee-Windows-Check

If you have a machine that needs action taken, please contact the IT Service Desk and open a service request. Be sure to mention McAfee ePO and a member of the Desktop team and/or IT-EPO Admin team will be able to assist you.
