The latest Windows 7 vulnerability gives enterprises yet another reason to migrate away from Windows 7. If a user opens a malicious document on Windows 7, the machine can be immediately compromised. The vulnerability is still unpatched to date. As a workaround, enterprises are advised to apply one of the mitigations provided by Microsoft in the link below.* For enterprises that are stuck with Windows 7 because the need to support legacy applications, consider using OS/VM isolation solutions that allow you to run Windows 7 and Windows 10 simultaneously, side-by-side, so that the Windows 7 OS is isolated to a separate segment that isn\’t directly connected to the internet and to sensitive corporate assets.
