As technology advances and becomes as critical to our digital lives as water is to our physical well-being, we must be keenly aware of whether that "water" is tainted with harmful elements that could harm us.
This sentiment applies not only to your health but also to your technological security concerns. For most technical systems, we may be inclined to assume that "big tech" — meaning the creators of the software or technology — will automatically make things safe for us. However, there may be risks that neither the provider nor the user recognizes until they surface.
Recently, the FileMaker landscape has been impacted by several critical security findings, making it essential for you to understand your level of exposure.
In many cases, threats may be mitigated by measures within your control. However, in some instances, upgrading is the only viable solution. Many FileMaker systems still rely on versions much older than FileMaker 19, following the old adage, "If it isn’t broken, don’t fix it." This time, however, it is very, very broken. Older versions of FileMaker Server, if publicly accessible, can be hacked in ways that conceal any traces of intrusion. In this case, using outdated versions is a risk you can't afford unless you're prepared to accept that your system is essentially open to anyone willing to find it.
