Microsoft and NSA confirmed that there was a dangerous bug in the Windows 10 so severe it could compromise government systems, critical functions. Imagine a malicious software allowed to install or attack your computer because this flaw allowed it. That’s exactly what NSA disclosed to Microsoft recently. They identified that there is a vulnerability in Windows 10 and Windows Server 2016 that would allow, for example, a ransomware program to run because the vulnerable computer would think it is coming from a trusted source.
At this time NSA advised they have not seen any attackers actively exploiting this flaw but it will be only a matter of time. Zeta Sky recommends highly to patch your Windows computers and servers with the latest update so that this bug will be fixed.
