Microsoft will be ending support for Windows 10 in October 2025. After that date, devices running Windows 10 will no longer receive essential security updates, patches, or technical support.

It provides reliable, connection-oriented communication.

Ensures error checking, sequencing, and retransmission of lost data.

Quick recap of the options:

Transport → TCP, UDP

Session → Manages sessions between applications

Network → IP addressing & routing (IP, ICMP)

Data Link → Physical addressing (MAC) & frame delivery

It’s a common misconception that only large enterprises are prime targets for cyberattacks. In reality, small and midsize businesses are frequently targeted because attackers anticipate weaker defenses and limited resources.

📌 Research shows that over 90% of successful cyberattacks begin with email.
This makes email the most important security layer for organizations of any size.

Key practices that significantly reduce risk include:

Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA): Adds an essential layer of protection against stolen credentials.

Employee Awareness Training: Equips staff to recognize phishing attempts and malicious links.

Regular Patching and Updates: Ensures systems remain resilient against emerging threats.

Email Security Gateways: Filters spam, phishing, and malware before they reach inboxes.

Data Backup and Recovery: Provides business continuity in the event of ransomware or data loss.

Strengthening email security is not only a technical safeguard — it’s a core element of protecting business continuity, client trust, and long-term resilience.
