USF uses a Network Access Control system to periodically check that minimum protection standards are met on machines operating in the residence halls (ResHalls) to prevent them from spreading viruses across our network and infecting additional computers. The scan application installed on client machines is called the 'Network Access Control (NAC) Agent.'
Update: Security enhancements will be enabled starting Sept. 10 in the ResHalls for Windows-based computers and laptops. For more info check out our blog post.

Video Game consoles
- To connect your video game console to the USF network, you will first need to register your unit with the ITS Help Desk. You must bring your unit to the Help Desk. Once registered you will (in most cases) not need to re-register if you're living on campus in future years.
- If you own more than one video game console, each console needs to be registered with the Help Desk in person (i.e. XBOX 360, Wii, PS3, etc). Please ensure you bring your full console and connection cables including:
- Console
- Power adapter
- One controller
- Video connection cable: Generally RGB and/or HDMI (Bring the video cord you use when connecting to your TV; if you're not sure bring both
