Security risks associated with out-of-date software
Are you running a security risk because your phone system isn’t operating the latest available version of software?
Software manufacturers work hard to keep abreast of any potential security threats and ensure their products are patched. It’s in your interest to make sure you apply any updates as soon as they are issued.
Not only that, being on the latest software release improves your system’s performance and functionality. This can have a direct impact on both customer and employee satisfaction.
Improved telephone system performance.
Software updates can do more than just protect your system from a security threat, they can improve performance too. Software-level fixes often resolve smaller, less pervasive issues that may not affect security, but can be aggravating all the same.
New Features & Functionality.
When you update to the latest software version, you often get the benefit of new features and functionalities. Users can benefit from these for improved performance and ease of use.
Increased security for your telephone system.
By continuing to run older software versions, you will be missing out on security updates issued by the manufacturer, as well as critical service patches. Closing off as many known security threats as possible is paramount to any business, particularly as we try to keep up with the ever-increasing threats.
Suffering a data breach, due to a security flaw that already has a known fix, should not be an option.
