Windows 7 EOL Part II
Well, it's here! January 14th, the official day that the support for Windows 7 ends. What does this mean? Well, as in my previous article, this means that Microsoft will no longer be publishing any updates or patching any security features of the OS itself. For the home user, this means your computer will run just fine, although over time as security flaws and other exploits are found, the less safe it will become, leaving your data on that system at risk.
For small business' that are using Windows 7, you are encouraged to upgrade immediately, as said above, once more and more security flaws and other exploits appear, there will be attacks on your systems. (Mainly because everyone is after personal information) No matter how big or how small your business is, it can become a target.
Below is a link to The Hacker News article regarding the EOL of Windows 7 and some other info that you may be after.
