DECS has found 2 different free software that allow for virtualization on Mac. VMware Fusion Player and VirtualBox. We have found VMware Fusion to be the easier of the two products to install, but does require that you create an account in order to download it. VirtualBox does not require this, but may require more work to install. Please make sure that your system is fully updated before trying to install either of these applications. We can not guarantee compatibility with older versions of OSX. 

A Virtual Private Network, or VPN (wikipedia), can be established by using the Pulse Secure client program to connect to Engineering resources from outside the Engineering network. Once the VPN connection is established, users can access resources such as software licenses or network drives (M:, O: or R: drives).
