25 Memorandum To: From: Tom Hatcher John Herron Date: 4/29/2014 Re: The Need To Replace Windows XP Machines Microsoft has withdrawn support for Windows XP. This means that as vulnerabilities are discovered Microsoft will no longer release fixes for the problems. Any computer still running Windows XP can be a risk for the County s network. It can be an entry point for viruses, malware, and spyware. This prudent use of the reserved money will help in mitigating access points for vulnerabilities to the County s network. While the County s network is protected by a firewall and entry point scans and desktop antivirus software, nothing is better than eliminating the problem before an opportunity to strike is presented. Another consideration is that most new applications will no longer support Windows XP. This purchase will allow the office to continue to use newer and/or upgraded applications. In addition, it will allow standardization of the software in the office to allow for greater user familiarity and productivity. 1

26 Security flaw puts all Internet Explorer users at risk, exposes Windows XP By Dante D'Orazio on April 27, :27 pm If you're still using a 12-year-old operating system, a new security flaw discovered in Internet Explorer should cause you quite a bit of consternation. Microsoft published a security advisory today warning its customers that a vulnerability in all versions of Internet Explorer (6 through 11) could let hackers gain full user permissions over your computer, allowing them to install programs, view and delete data, and much more simply by visiting a website. That's not good, but at least anyone using Internet Explorer on a modern version of Windows will likely see a patch within a couple weeks' time. Since Microsoft finally ended support for Windows XP on April 8th, it will not receive an update. This is the first known security flaw since that support deadline passed, and it bears true the warnings voiced by the tech community. Windows XP is no longer secure, and it's time to move on. Security firm FireEye, which revealed the flaw to Microsoft, says that there's evidence of an active exploit targeting Internet Explorer 9 through 11 and Adobe Flash. All Internet Explorer users, regardless of operating system, have a few choices for avoiding this exploit. The easiest method is to use another browser, like Chrome or Firefox (both of which are currently still supported for Windows XP). If you need to stick with Internet Explorer, Microsoft has published some more advanced methods alongside its service advisory, including enabling Enhanced Protected Mode. Regardless of what you do, it's a good a idea to take some action to make sure you're safe from the exploit. explore zero day security flaw affects allversions
