Keep programs updated


Description

As the popular adage goes, "Nobody's perfect." The same goes for computer systems. As much as they are tested intensely, sometimes unexpected errors are found after their launch. These errors can lead to security flaws and vulnerabilities, but this does not mean that everything is lost and the system will have to be thrown away. System updates exist to fix these errors and keep systems running. 

Failure to perform updates (whether because of forgetfulness, laziness, or negligence) can be all a malicious attacker needs to hack into your system. Therefore, it is very important to keep your devices and systems up to date. This is one of the essential steps to keep your devices safe.
