If you have windows 7 software you should consider looking into updating it, or switching to a newer windows software, due to the fact of the vulnerability. Hackers are taking private info and embedding a cryptocurrency. This is happening to more then 700,000 computers, which is a very high number.

There are some reasons because of which people still prefer Windows 7 over windows 10, as when Windows 7 came after vista, it proved to be a very stable and reliable operating system, people got used to it, and not only people often don’t want to use new things with very different interface but also Windows 10 showed some problems like restarting and updating suddenly, lots of pirated versions, and updates making the system unreliable.
This article shows that several such computers using Windows 7 that are connected to the internet are searched and exploited often to mine cryptocurrency. The problem is that awareness among people is needed, as they assume they are safe over the internet like “most” of the people and nothing is going to happen. But as the risk is increasing and this news is spreading about BlueKey vulnerability, it is hoped more people will patch their old operating systems.
