Hey, Windows 7 and XP Users — You Need to Patch Now. I am not judging. But, if you are still using a years old version of Windows, such as XP or Windows 7, you need to read this article. A new exploit of the Remote Desktop services function can take control of your system without your knowledge. Hey, I know how dependent some firms can be on legacy systems. If it works, don’t fix it, and all that. But, if Microsoft even issues a patch for systems that lost tech support years ago, like XP, you know it’s serious. Best play here? Upgrade your systems to Windows 10. If you refuse to do that, then make sure the old systems download and install the patch. Be careful out there.
