Manchester (UK) and Boston (MA): The University of Derby yesterday confirmed it was using Avecto Privilege Guard to effectively manage their end user privileges. Their IT support team needed to manage and minimise the risks posed by users when downloading unknown applications, as well as ensuring compatibility with other incumbent applications, and ensuring licensing conformity. Users’ administrator rights have been removed and instead applications are now elevated within Privilege Guard as and when required. This has resulted in a dramatic drop in virus and Trojan outbreaks.
