Communicate these solutions to departments. Provide an opportunity for departments to purchase licenses at a rate that corresponds to the number of computers in the department and reflects the discount achieved through bulk purchasing. Provide training to participating UM departments on virus protection. Work with participating departments to install virus software on all computers. In this case, the individual, not IT, will be responsible for installation.
