Faculty Grant Machines

I'm wondering how other schools handle computers purchased by faculty using grant money. Do you require that those 
machines be managed by your security software such as AV, patch management, etc? Do you segregate those from the rest 
of the network and leave them alone? Or do you let faculty do whatever they wish to do with the machines? Does anyone 
know what the institutions responsibility is in the event of a breach of confidential information on grant purchased 
research machines? Any sage advice or information is appreciated. 

Thanks,

Zach
