Implementing an IT Security solution is just the first step in securing your network. Many organisations have endpoint security software sitting on machines and expiring or falling out of support. In today’s evolving threat landscape this is just as risky as not having installed it in the first place. Security vendors update their solutions constantly to deal with the latest cyber-attacks so updating to the latest product versions is more important than ever.

What you need to do

For starters, having outdated antivirus or antimalware in place can create a false sense of safety, despite the cybersecurity landscape having recently shifted to continuous defenses. CIOs and security teams are realising that they not only have to keep software up to date, but also must go beyond malware/virus detection and shield enterprise data from advanced persistent threats.

It has been clear for years that security infrastructure needed an overhaul. On top of that, today’s cutting-edge threats are frequently and automatically updated, is making it difficult for signature-based defenses to keep pace. Security must now be at least somewhat proactive, since being purely reactive requires incredible overhead. Keeping software up to date hasn’t always been a strong suit of businesses or consumers but leaving it as-is is equivalent to having no protection at all.
