Vulnerability Assessment Requirements

Greetings, I am throwing this question out there to schools who have implemented a vulnerability assessment solution such as CCA, Impulse Point, or Campus Manager. (Note, I am not trying to start a debate on one versus the other.) We are working to get CCA ready for our students this fall and I was wondering what other schools have decided upon regarding the requirements they are imposing on their student's PCs. With CCA you can check for a lot of things: service packs, Microsoft updates, existence of anti-virus software, the age of antivirus definition, installed programs, a missing installed program, etc. I am curious to find out what requirements other schools have used? Do you allow a grace period or do you require that new updates and virus definitions are necessary as soon as they become available? Thanks in advance, Chris Brown Information Technology Services Network/Telecom Administrator Regis University, Denver CO
