Updates and Security

Everyone knows that keeping your computer and anti-virus up to date is important.

What most people miss is that with Microsoft and Windows their products only get updated once a month. With the ever-changing nature of the internet and the endless wave of threats; hacking, malware and ransomware. We recommend using third party anti-virus software to keep your information as safe as possible. There are many options available to you and we would love to discuss these options with you.  BRP-IT recommends using Spybot™ ; this program provides updates once a week for the free version, and multiple updates a day for the paid version!
