Currently, large companies tend to move their assets in the cloud (cloud data management<\/a><\/strong>) And to digitalize all the processes performed. This causes also increase your chances of getting an online attack, so it is very important to protect. To do this, the creators of operating systems add security patches updates. But these do not always work properly. So many times we wonder, is it better upgrade computer systems or be vulnerable<\/strong>?<\/p>\n

computer vulnerability or threat<\/h2>\n

A computer vulnerability occurs when there is a weakness in terms of hardware or software. This allows a ciberatacante access the system and can cause serious security issues<\/strong>So that this is compromised.<\/p>\n

However, the threat is internal or external action, which allows to exploit a vulnerability. They can be given in the form of cyber attack, physical problem or malware (randsomware<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In other words, vulnerability is what is wrong in our system and the threat is what can hurt us.<\/p>\n

Types of computer vulnerability<\/h3>\n

There are two main types of computer conditions that can weaken our system at different levels. Below, we explain in more detail each:<\/p>\n
