How scary is the system "streaking"?

XP system is out of service, will be infected within 10 minutes?

Although there are many examples of virus exploits in the history of exploiting Windows vulnerabilities on a large scale, such as red code, blue code, Nimda, and shockwave. However, in recent years, publicly discovered hackers have used more than ten methods to exploit vulnerabilities. When the above attacks occurred, Microsoft had released a patch, but because a large number of users did not promptly repair it, the vulnerability was eventually exploited on a large scale by hackers, resulting in a global network security disaster.

In fact, during the period when Microsoft provided maintenance for XP, and during the process of patching the system, the XP system constantly showed high-risk 0day loopholes. Because Microsoft is not a "timely rain," patching takes a long time to develop and test, and often only after weeks or even months after the vulnerability was exploited did Microsoft release patches.

In addition, the piracy of XP used by domestic users is already an open secret. The pirated system needs to shield Microsoft's monitoring and does not accept Microsoft's services. Microsoft has never provided automatic updates to pirated systems. This group of users has always been relying on third-party software to maintain. Therefore, it can be said that the possibility of exploiting system vulnerabilities by hackers will increase when the update is stopped. Therefore, it is not as serious as network rumors.

What security issues should users pay attention to?

For genuine users, especially brand-name users (including bulk purchases), after the XP system stops updating, the potential vulnerability risks and the inability to obtain official system patches will make this group of users very troublesome. And the software of many domestic enterprise users is designed based on the XP system, so this time Microsoft stopped the technical support of the XP system and the impact on the information security of this part of users is huge.

The XP system has lost its official technical support and updates. The system will no longer be secure, and it will become a target for various viruses and Trojans. Lost the umbrella, "catch broiler" will become more simple, "catch broiler" is the use of system service vulnerability remote overflow attacks, the successful installation of Trojans directly to the system, because a large number of XP open remote desktop services, many users use simple Password login system, hackers succeeded in catching chickens remotely, and they would install Trojans directly on the computer. The system has lost its protection. Vulnerabilities and patches cannot be deployed in time. This increases the probability of the computer being exposed to danger and the security of personal information is threatened.

However, these Trojan horses and viruses are not used by anyone. After more than ten years of experience, XP has had a certain level of resistance. The timely maintenance of security vendors has also played an important role during this period. Since it is an "important role", after the XP system stops updating. We need to turn our attention to security software. How to choose a safe and reliable software has become the core issue.

What kind of security software is the most reliable?

The reason why we use security software is to ensure system security, not only network security, but also the computer's own security, system pressure is too large, the software is taking up more memory is the system "sub-health" performance. At present, many third-party software on the market integrates a lot of fancy features. The overly large posture leads to the system being overwhelmed and the computer security is hidden.

In addition, there have been cases in which security software has been insecure in the industry. Forced installations, counterfeit patches, and privacy are frequent occurrences. Therefore, a pure, simple and practical software that is truly non-threatening to users will be trusted by users. Become our first choice.

As the security software that was just launched in June last year, Baidu Guards has made the first promise of "no harassment, no coercion, no privacy stealing", which has caused many users to switch to the protection of Baidu Guardian. It has also become a download quantity and installation. One of the fastest growing security software products.

After the release of Microsoft's news, many domestic security vendors made great efforts to declare that they continue to provide XP users with security protection. The response of Baidu Guards was rapid, and the first one was to launch the “XP Convoy Program”. It is understood that Baidu Guardian will launch XP Special Edition to provide users with comprehensive security protection services. From a deep control of system management mechanisms, built-in sandboxes, and functional extensions, all-round proactive defenses provide a highly compatible and smooth XP operating experience while protecting XP users' security protection.

Baidu official also stated that in order to make the “XP user solution” more closely fit XP user habits, its Baidu Guardian will synchronously launch a microblogging solicitation activity for netizens to “XP security private customization” program. Users can express their desire for enhanced XP experience and functions through Sina Weibo, and participate in the perfect updating of “XP User Solutions” to provide support for the maintenance of favorite XP systems.
