Time is running out, backup your systems today!

You might think that there’s nothing to worry about when it comes to ensuring your system is safe, yes new versions of software and operating systems may come out, but if the old ones work, why upgrade? Well, why you might think it could be a hassle to do what is more than likely a simple update, these in the long run are well worth the time it takes to upgrade. A lot of times system updates are seen as a hassle, but if you want to ensure the safety of your systems, it would be in your best interest to do them as soon as possible.

While older versions of software may be fully operational, they lack the security and support once they become unsupported by the developers. Windows 10 will be unsupported by Microsoft, meaning the security updates you come to expect will stop being rolled out. In general, Microsoft recommends a third-party backup, so you can’t go crying to them if something goes wrong while using their services. But with the addition of them no longer offering security updates, why wait for something to go wrong when you can secure a third-party backup from us today!

It’s not just little companies that are dropping support, these are widely used top-of-the-food chain businesses that are discontinuing services that can see you lose your data if you’re not careful. Just recently Apple announced that they are cutting support for iCloud for devices running iOS 8 or older. Apple is used by millions and even they are saying goodbye to support for its older devices. More about that can be read here –https://appleinsider.com/articles/24/11/18/apple-ends-icloud-backup-support-for-ios-8-and-earlier-on-december-18

Unfortunately, you can only hold on to the past for so long, with how fast technology moves nowadays, you’ll get left behind if you don’t move with it. Don’t let your systems be susceptible to potential threats, as unpatched security flaws in your OS could cause you to be without your systems. We strongly suggest you update your systems and then come to Backup Systems to get yourself a reliable third-party backup solution.
