Why am I being asked to update?
In order to ensure that IT can accurately protect macOS devices, users will receive a pop-up notification when a new security update is released. To apply an update when you receive this notification, click Update Device, which will open System Settings > Software Update.
Upgrade Available
If a new major version of macOS is available, you will have two sections, one for the new version at the top and "Other Updates" below. We recommend upgrading, but if your version of macOS is still receiving security updates, it is acceptable to update your current version.
Click Upgrade Now or one of the update options. Follow any on-screen prompts and you're done.
Update Only
If there is an update available, but no major version upgrade available, there will only be one section. Choose one of the update options. Follow any on-screen prompts and you're done.
