This must be a windows device (current version documented within Standards document); MAC is not allowed. It is a policy of the State of Tennessee that all devices that will be accessing the State Network have some sort of anti-virus on them before they can connect. We will have the Desktop Support team remote into the device on the first day of this engagement so that the user can log in and we can scan the device for anti-virus.

Once we have detected that there is anti-virus software installed, then we can load the VPN software. GRID card is emailed to the consultant for logging into the VPN. The VPN account must be set up under their credentials for us to download and set it up the first time. We cannot get to those credentials without their password, which they must log in with. We do not allow our employees to have the customer’s password; it is considered a security violation.

If it is ever determined to be needed for the consultant(s) to go onsite, they must seek prior approval from an Edison Manager or Supervisor to access State facilities between 6:00 PM and 6:00 AM or on weekends or holidays.
