Do Non-Techies have a chance? The WinRAR Vulnerability.

Welcome to our YouTube discussion with Gregor, an experienced CTO, and Arne, a lawyer in the IT industry. This week we meditate on vulnerabilities, hacks, and exploits in everyday software found on more or less every computer. Do non-techies, "normal users", even have any chance to mitigate them? And if so, what can they do? We discuss all this using the recent WinRAR vulnerability as an example. As usual, we are considering a number of things along the way. 👉 Is MacOS more secure than Windows? 👉 Should we use Linux without antivirus software? 👉 Do refrigerators need to buy milk themselves? Don't forget to share your knowledge and join the conversation in the comments. Let's explore the state of technology and potential liability in the IT industry with Gregor and Arne!
