We have been listening to concerns from our campus community about our Berkeley Security Software, which includes Trellix HX Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR). We aim to help the community better understand the software, as we share the campus's commitment to transparency, privacy, and academic freedom. That's why we created new resources and are hosting a Town Hall.
