Please make sure that your BBj and Java applications are always kept up to date with the latest software and security updates.
Regular security updates for Java, BBj, and the system components you use are an important part of maintaining a secure environment. This is especially important for systems that connect to external services or the internet, or that can be accessed from the internet. Available updates should be reviewed and installed promptly.
Security updates address known vulnerabilities and reduce the risk of them being exploited in existing installations. We therefore recommend checking your BBj and Java versions regularly and installing security updates provided by the respective vendors without unnecessary delay.
Our recommendations for secure operation
- Keep BBj and the Java version you use up to date and on a supported release.
- Check regularly for newly available security updates.
- Install security-related updates promptly, especially on systems with internet access.
- Also consider Java versions that are included in client or field deployments.
If you are unsure which BBj or Java version is currently being used in your environment, or whether any action is required, we will be happy to assist you in reviewing and updating your installation.
Our goal is to keep you informed about security-related updates at an early stage and to support the secure and reliable operation of your BASIS applications.
