Critical Updates
Update software regularly
Cyber criminals are endlessly inventive in their efforts to exploit vulnerabilities in software, and many software companies work tirelessly to combat these threats.
That is why you should:
- Regularly install updates for all your software - antivirus and antispyware programs, browsers (like Windows Internet Explorer), operating systems (like Windows), and word processing and other programs.
- Subscribe to automatic software updates whenever they are offered—for
example, you can automatically update all Microsoft software.
- Uninstall software that you don't use. You can remove it using Windows Control Panel.
