Why would a workstation have any inbound ports at all? Surely the most common use case of a workstation is that you only make outbound connections.Īlso, making outbound connections also carries risk, you may be running an up to date browser, but that browser also has to interact with the rest of the OS, and this too can introduce risks. Turning off services only reduces the risk.
You may feel that by turning off unused services means you are safe, but then this is something you should have done in the first place and should also be doing with any modern os.
Because this “legacy os” is abandoned by its creator, and will never receive any security updates ever again… It’s also closed source and proprietary so noone else can provide fixes for it instead.Īs such, using it on the Internet is wholly irresponsible.
