This cybersecurity issue affects both small and large companies alike, as many older computers still run outdated operating systems on which staff may only occasionally access. Furthermore, companies often rely on customized software that doesn't run on older OS versions for operations.

Out-of-date hardware and software are no longer eligible for important security updates, which often address newly discovered or exploited system flaws. Without security patches installed, a device becomes vulne...
