On January 12th 2016, Microsoft announced it will
stop supporting older versions of Internet Explorer.
It means from now on, Internet Explorer 10 and prior
will not get security updates. However many people are still using older
versions of Internet Explorer, and it has become a potential threat.
In July 2016, Dell SonicWALL observed that:
- 0.7% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 5.x.
- 60.6% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 6.x.
- 71.1% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 7.x.
- 22.4% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 8.x.
- 24.3% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 9.x.
- 31.5% of firewalls reported use of Internet
Explorer 10.x.
Unpatched Internet
Explorer is insecure and can damage the system. So, we, ICT For Myanmar would
like to urges all our customers to review their environment and stop using
Internet Explorer 10 and prior.
