Configuring dual-boot computers

A dual boot machine, one that runs two operating systems, must meet the security requirements for both operating systems in order to meet Trinity security policy. Below are specific guidelines for computers running Windows and Linux or macOS and Windows.

Windows/Linux dual boot

If your computer runs both Windows and Linux then you must fully configure both Windows and Linux as per the instructions above. IT Services will supply you with the IP address once you have completed the Windows security checks.

macOS/Windows dual boot

If your computer runs both macOS and Windows then you must configure both Windows and macOS separately as per the instructions above.
