Microsoft's cyber security expert Chris Jackson advises
users to quit utilizing the 'legacy' internet browser, which Microsoft formally
ended in 2015 encouraging them to move to a much more 'modern browser' that is
fully informed regarding current web guidelines as well as standards.
In a blog entry post the 'Perils of using Internet Explorer
as your Default Browser ' Jackson clarified with explanation with several
reasons as to why the users should switch.
“Internet Explorer is a compatibility solution, we're not
supporting new web standards for it and, while many sites work fine, developers
by and large just aren't testing for Internet Explorer these days. They're
testing on modern browsers.”
'...As new apps are coming out with greater frequency, what
we want to help you do is avoid having to miss out on a progressively larger
portion of the web,' he adds later.
While he includes further that it's commonly fine for users
to utilize Internet Explorer in an undertaking situation, yet they would secure
themselves better on the off chance if they change to a more up to date
browser.
