Microsoft has released a new warning regarding ‘Critical’ issues with Windows 10 & 11 – it is advised that you check your PC as soon as possible.
Attention, Windows users! This week Microsoft has swiftly issued urgent warnings, encouraging you to update your systems to the latest version of Windows 11.
Why the sense of urgency? There have been multiple critical security flaws discovered, with two out of eighty bugs considered extremely dangerous – they have been dubbed “Zero-day” risks! This means that hackers have already identified these vulnerabilities and are exploiting unprotected systems as we speak. Don’t wait, update now to secure your system from these unwanted virtual intruders!
One critical vulnerability, codenamed CVE-2023-24880, has been found lurking within older Windows versions! This flaw enables daring hackers to outsmart security measures and orchestrate elevated privilege attacks. Picture this: your PC, under siege, granting these nefarious cyber intruders full access to confidential data they should never possess.
The safety of your data and your computer’s security is our priority, and that is why we are here to remind you about the importance of keeping your Windows software up-to-date.
Due to the seriousness of this latest patch, we urge you to ensure your Windows is up to date ASAP. Even though many computers will run these updates automatically overnight, it is always good to double check. To do this, simply go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update, and click on “Check for updates.”
If you’re already up-to-date, you’re safe and sound. But if an update is waiting, don’t hesitate – install it now for a secure and enhanced computing experience.
Unfortunately, Microsoft no longer supports technical issues, software updates and security updates for Windows 7 and Windows 8 users. This puts millions of devices at a greater risk of potential attacks. Don’t fall among the vulnerable – join the movement in ensuring a safer digital world by keeping your software updated.
