Bradford Requirements

Bradford Campus Manager performs user and computer validation on connections to our network. Essentially, it checks to see if you are a Davidson person and if your computer meets our network security standards. This software keeps our network safe from unauthorized use and provides a secure environment for personal computing. 

Listed below for your reference are the remediation instructions for some of the Bradford requirements; if your computer actually needs to be changed to meet the requirements, you will be informed of this and given instructions as you log in or when your computer is rescanned.
