Updates are vital to the digital safety of your devices and general cybersecurity. Hackers now routinely exploit unpatched vulnerabilities in all operating systems and applications (including Mac OS, iOS and Android) in order to install malware on unsuspecting users.

How do I keep my computer updated?

On your Windows device, install updates via Windows Update
On your MacOS device, install updates via Software Update

 

How do these updates protect you and your computer?

• Repairs known security flaws that could let viruses, malware, or hackers into your system;
• They help protect sensitive information from being exposed or stolen;
• Improves your computer’s ability to detect and block new types of cyber threats;
• Reduces the risk of spreading harmful software to other devices or individuals; and
• Allows access to the newest features and performance improvements designed with stronger security in mind.

Don't forget your smartphone!

Updates are not limited to computers and are also available for mobile devices. When you see an update notification for your other devices, make sure you install for better performance and enhanced security.

Keep your mobile apps updated from the Play Store on Android or the App Store on iOS.
