As a reminder, Information Security for Institutionally Owned Computers (ISR-2) requires Drexel-owned computers to use a supported operating system. With the availability of macOS Tahoe, Drexel supports the three most recent major versions of macOS—macOS Tahoe (26), macOS Sequoia (15), and macOS Sonoma (14)—and drops support for macOS Ventura (13). We encourage you to upgrade to remain compliant with ISR-2.
