Keeping devices up to date is one of the most effective ways to protect against malware. The Duo Desktop app ensures your system is healthy and ensures you only see reminders about updating your devices operating system when it is out of date.  It never accesses personal files, erases data, or changes settings without your permission.

For details on the data collected by the Duo Desktop application, please see the following Duo article: What data does Duo Desktop collect?

Some Microsoft Office add-ins, including Mendeley Cite for Word and Vevox for PowerPoint, may require the Duo Desktop app to be installed on your device to sign in correctly.
