MiWorkspace and other managed computers updated for you

  • Mac. If you have a MiWorkspace Mac or a Mac managed via ITS’s Managed Software Center (that is, those managed via Izzy), you do not need to do anything at this time. Watch for a communication from MiWorkspace or your unit IT provider about what to expect.
  • Windows. MiWorkspace Windows computers are equipped with an “always on” VPN-like client called DirectAccess that does not require separate client software. If you use the Cisco AnyConnect client on a MiWorkspace Windows computer, you will receive updated connection profiles with Duo.
