As we mentioned in the morning, a group hackers named Shadow Brokers freely online the code accessof encrypted NSA tools used to breach Windows operating systems.
The news immediately made the round of the world mainly because the time of the leak coincided over the weekend and during the Easter holidays for many, thus making the development of updates impossible by the developers. 
And although it looked like the end of the world, as some experts have said on the case, Microsoft has just announced that there is absolutely no reason to worry.
The NSA tools that they leaked they attempt to exploit vulnerabilities that have already been patched, according to Microsoft's announcement, so if you fully upgrade your system, no one will be able to break into your computer.
The vulnerabilities are very old, according to the statement of the company and have already been determined before the release of Windows Vista, while others have been addressed with more recent updates.
Η λέξη κλειδί στην ανακοίνωση της Microsoft, ωστόσο, είναι ο όρος "υποστηρίζεται."
This means that only versions of Windows that still receive updates are safe. The Windows XP, για παράδειγμα, θα μπορούσε να είναι ευάλωτα σε attacks, as updates have stopped since April 2014.
“The three exploits, “EnglishmanDentist”, “EsteemAudit”, and “ExplodingCan”, do not work on supported platforms, πράγμα που σημαίνει ότι οι πελάτες μας που τρέχουν Windows 7 και πιο πρόσφατες εκδόσεις των Windows ή του Exchange 2010 και νεότερες εκδόσεις του Exchange δεν είναι σε κίνδυνο. Οι πελάτες μας που εξακολουθούν να τρέχουν προηγούμενες εκδόσεις αυτών των προϊόντων ενθαρρύνονται να αναβαθμίσουν σε μια υποστηριζόμενη έκδοση", αναφέρει η Microsoft.
