Computing Services offers the following levels of support

  1. Standard Support: User(s) agree to use SE Computing as their only support to fully maintain their computer and agree to run the system with limited rights.  
     
  2.

This includes operating system and application(s) updates, installation of peripherals, and installation of needed software. Upon malware or virus detection, SE Computing will wipe the machine back to the original state.
