Ever wonder why is it important to keep your computer updated?

Keeping your computer software up-to-date is critical to protecting you from the latest threats.

The truth is it’s very easy to skip software updates but what you might not realize, is that these updates are for a reason, and brushing them aside can be a big mistake. Most of us will put off software update requests because we are too busy or think we’ll do it later, but we rarely do because no time is a good time. Sound familiar?

Software updates are important because they often include critical patches to security holes, which left unattended, can provide hackers the opportunity to find a security loop and access your private information, putting you at risk for identity theft, loss of money, credit, and more.

Having the knowledge and taking precautionary steps to prevent attacks can lower an organization’s risk to cyber attacks that can be minor, or be as malicious as taking down an entire company network.
