1.1.4 I update regularly my computer's operating system, security software and other applications (when prompted or by setting up automatic updates), to prevent security issues

These updates fix security issues and add new features. The device owner should install updates when prompted to, or enable automatic updates if the device has. Updates often happen automatically in the background — but not always. So, a good practice is to check regularly for updates and make sure that device software has them.
