Cybersecurity Tip of the Week – Keep a Close Eye on Older Devices

|

There’s no problem with holding onto a phone, tablet, or computer for a long period of time, but there are two important conditions you should keep in mind. If the device’s support has reached its end-of-life and is connected to the internet, you should seriously consider upgrading to a newer model. This is because devices that meet these criteria are more vulnerable to malware infections, as they contain unpatched security flaws and are no longer supported by the manufacturer.
