Secure and Manage

Aggie Desktop provides self-service installation of common software titles through the BigFix Self-Service Application (SSA). This allows end users to install common software without requiring administrative rights or credentials on Windows and Mac computers. Whenever possible, applications installed through self-service are patched using the Aggie Desktop BigFix Patching service. 

Campus units may subscribe to this service at no cost instead of or in addition to managing their own BigFix self-service offers.
