Every day, technology advance and changes the important parts of our everyday activities. It applies not only to our personal activities but to business activities as well.

Some of the most common cyber-attacks are happening due to vulnerabilities discovered in OS, and the fact that many of the servers still use old software. This means that there will be no more future patches for those systems, which could cause a problem if some new cyber threat occurs.
