System updating

The “gold standard” for the implementation of critical patches is 30 days, and 90 days for non-critical patches, although that’s still more than enough time for cyber criminals to do damage.

Often, these businesses have bespoke systems and/or software applications that are set up in a certain way and only work with specific versions of software.

Neglecting these updates is akin to someone leaving their front door open and windows unlocked, but many businesses simply cannot afford to take their activities offline for even a minute.

As the technology landscape has evolved and diversified, businesses now use a variety of systems and third-party applications to manage and enhance processes.

Cybercriminals are banking on businesses not updating or patching their systems or software so that they can exploit vulnerabilities and deal damage.

If an update is available, it should be applied at the earliest and most practical opportunity.

You can also manually check if an update is available in the Sound Touch app by doing the following steps: At the prompt, click SAVE to save the file to your desktop (do not rename the file).

If you do not see the prompt, the file may have downloaded automatically.
