Android 16’s enhanced Advanced Protection will let apps know when you’re serious about security

The latest beta version of Android 16 has introduced an API called AdvancedProtectionManager, which allows applications to determine if users are enrolled in the Advanced Protection program. This program enhances account security by prohibiting sideloading apps and requiring security keys or passkeys for Google account sign-ins. It blocks potentially harmful files from being downloaded and disables app installations from outside the Google Play Store. Additionally, it disables 2G connectivity and activates Memory Trust Execution (MTE) for compatible applications. Although the API is available in Android 16 Beta 2, users cannot yet enable the Advanced Protection mode, as synchronization with the operating system's features is pending a future rollout within Google Play Services. The effectiveness of the Advanced Protection program will depend on app developers' support in utilizing the new API.

Windows 10 end of life: How to prepare for the October deadline

Windows 10 will reach its end of life on October 14, 2025, after which it will no longer receive security updates. As of December 2024, over 62% of devices globally were still using Windows 10. Many organizations are delaying the upgrade to Windows 11 due to hardware compatibility issues, budget constraints, and the time required for employee training. Remaining on Windows 10 poses risks such as increased vulnerability to cyber threats and operational inefficiencies. Microsoft offers an Extended Security Updates program for organizations needing more time, but experts recommend investing in upgrading to Windows 11 for long-term benefits. The transition may require replacing incompatible devices and careful planning to minimize disruptions.

The clock is ticking: Why businesses must prepare for Windows 11 now

As of October 2025, Windows 10 will reach its end-of-support, posing risks for Australian businesses that still rely on it, with nearly 47% of the desktop OS market share. The Australian Cyber Security Centre warns that outdated systems will be more vulnerable to cyber-attacks, and businesses will no longer receive security updates, increasing the risk of data breaches, which currently average over AUD 1 million per incident. Compliance with regulations like the Australian Privacy Principles requires the use of secure and up-to-date technology. Windows 11 offers enhanced security features and productivity tools, making it essential for businesses adopting hybrid work models and integrating advanced technologies. HP is actively preparing businesses for this transition by optimizing its products for Windows 11, providing tailored solutions to ease the upgrade process. Additionally, the Australian Government has introduced a Technology Investment Boost for SMEs, allowing them to deduct 20% of costs related to digital adoption, and has committed AUD 1.2 billion to the Digital Economy Strategy to enhance digital infrastructure and skills.
