As technology has evolved, businesses have increasingly relied on cloud-based productivity tools to help them work efficiently and collaborate remotely. Two of the most popular options today are Microsoft 365 (formerly known as Office 365) and Google Workspace (formerly known as G Suite). Both offer an array of tools that include email, document creation and collaboration, video conferencing, and more.

In less than two months, Microsoft will be pulling the plug on the Windows 7 operating system (OS). This means that all technical support, software updates, and security patches will no longer be available for the OS. All systems running Windows 7 will eventually become vulnerable to cyberthreats such as malware, phishing, and denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, among others.
