    Question

     

    What is the recommendation regarding the Windows update cycle for operating systems used with BVMS?

     

    Answer

     

    There are several Windows Updates and Microsoft Updates, such as the ones below:

    • KB5012119
    • KB4486153
    • KB4553680
    • KB4549947
    • KB4589208
    • KB5036896
    • KB5011574
    • KB5037017

    Bosch recommends that the operating systems used by the video surveillance system are constantly updated, with a maximum update cycle of 6 months. Windows updates often include fixes for recently discovered security vulnerabilities, such as the Heartbleed SSL vulnerability, which affected millions of computers worldwide.

    Patches for these important issues should be installed. A major operating system update is recommended every two years. The Windows Lifecycle fact sheet (support.microsoft.com) is published by Microsoft and describes the current state of its operating systems
    (https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/faq/windows).
