Update Your Chrome Browser

If you have Google’s Chrome browser installed on your computers, please make sure to update it asap to version 78.0.3904.87 or later (latest as of today is 78.0.3904.97) as there are two security vulnerabilities in older versions that have active exploits in the wild. Google doesn’t talk too much in detail about exploits, but Kaspersky has a decent write up if you’d like more details, https://www.kaspersky.com/blog/google-chrome-zeroday-wizardopium/29126/

 How can you tell if you need to update?

To check, open up Chrome, click on the three vertical dots in the upper right corner of the browser (“Customize and control Google Chrome”), and select Help → About Google Chrome. If the number you see is 78.0.3904.87 or higher, everything is in order. You may see a red up arrow in that right corner, indicating an update is ready to be installed. You will have to close Chrome for the updates to take effect.

RealTime clients don’t have to worry about this as we update Chrome and most other third party applications automatically as part of your managed technology services.
