College-managed Windows computers which have Sophos EndPoint Security suite installed have automatically received a Sophos update to version 10.3.x. This update requires a reboot of the computer to complete.

Middlebury’s software management application, (KACE), may display a “desktop alert” message requesting that your computer be rebooted to complete the Sophos update. This is a legitimate and valid alert! If you see this KACE “desktop alert” message, please save your files and restart your computer as soon as possible, thank you.
