Verify if BigFix is installed

Since BigFix allows us to track a computer, associate the computer with a specific user and collect system specifics (e.g., OS, CPU, RAM, hard drive space), we are able to determine if a system can support encryption. BigFix can also be leveraged to verify patch levels and anti-virus/anti-malware software versions.

CrashPlan Permissions on Macs

Effective May 15, 2023, our standard application for automatic backups at UCSF is changing from Code42 to CrashPlan.  Although the backup service will remain the same, the name of the application, the logo and the branding will be different.  Due to this branding change by the vendor, UCSF Macs that are not actively managed on MDM by UCSF Jamf Pro will need to manually re-allow disk access to CrashPlan in order to continue the automatic backup process.
