SentinelOne: Next-Generation Computer Protection

SentinelOne is UNLV’s primary endpoint protection platform. It uses artificial intelligence (AI) to automatically detect, stop, and remediate cyberthreats in real time, helping keep your computer protected.

Ways To Check If Device Has SentinelOne

• Find the SentinelOne Agent icon in your system tray.
• Use your computer’s search feature to find it.
• Look in the UNLV IT Support Hub (Mac) or Software Center (Windows).
• Contact the IT Help Desk for assistance.

How SentinelOne Protects You

• Proactive Threat Detection: Looks for suspicious activity and potential threats, even ones we haven’t seen before
• Real-Time Protection: Blocks viruses, ransomware, and suspicious activity the moment they appear to help prevent damage
• 24/7 Security Monitoring: A team of real security experts monitors activity 24/7 to help keep computers secure
• Disruption-Free Security: Provides quiet, background protection that won’t slow you down and stops issues before they become problems
• Automatic Updates: Updates itself regularly to stay ahead of evolving attacks and keep your device protected

Don’t Have SentinelOne?

Some colleges and departments maintain their own systems and use other approved antivirus tools. If you don’t have SentinelOne installed, contact your department’s IT support team about your options.

The desktop management client listens for instructions on your computer. If you reach the Client Management login screen, the Client Management administration screen, or a warning that the connection is not private, your computer has the management client installed and is being centrally managed.

If you click the link and get an error message stating the site cannot be reached, your computer does not have the management client installed and is not being centrally managed.

UNLV does not currently provide antivirus software for personal or home use. With many trusted options available, choose one that best fits your security needs.
