You should check your Netgear routers are patched

Netgear have issued a security advisory – you should check your Netgear equipment. Impacted equipment should be patched as soon as possible:

Security Advisory for Pre-Authentication Buffer Overflow on Some Routers, PSV-2019-0208 | Answer | NETGEAR Support

My advice: Either you or your IT support need to check whether these issues impact your systems. You need to have a master document that details your systems, hardware, software, online, networks, back-ups, suppliers etc – so when cyber security (or operational) issues arise you and your support teams can quickly check if you are affected. From there you can take fast, effective action.
