In 2025, the top 5 known exploited vulnerability (#KEV) vendors as of https://cyble.com/blog/cisa-kev-2025-exploited-vulnerabilities-growth/ were:
Microsoft (39)
#Apple (9)
#Cisco (8)
#Fortinet (8)
#Google #Chromium (7)
If you like to minimize your #security risk here, avoiding those vendors could improve your overall exposure.
As you can see, this is particularly true for #Microsoft.
Mitigation using #AntiMalware or #EndPointProtection is not the answer as we've learned in the previous year where the "Most Frequently Exploited #Vulnerabilities" have been security products!

If you have high requirements for #ITsecurity, you need to migrate your systems to #Linux which is also part of KEV but on a *much* better level!
