Keeping up-to-date with security updates is incredibly important.
I’ve never had an issue with viruses, I’m not a big company nor do I download sketchy files. I feel like if there’s something serious enough to affect me (like the iPhone Unicode character exploit), I’d hear about it.
You'll never have an issue until you do. Not to mention all the issues you don't know about.
Every CVE I flip a coin.
Makes life more exciting.
But not so much for the printers...
Printer botnet goes brr.
Printers always go brr.
Unless they're HP, then they only go brr if you buy their ink. And apparently Brother now too.
