What are the risks of not regularly updating our systems?
You get a notification that a software update is available, but you click it away: “I’ll do it later.” Sound familiar? Skipping once quickly becomes the norm. Before you know it, you’re working on outdated software that hasn’t been updated for weeks or even months. It may seem harmless, but in the long run it can bring serious risks.
