As part of Maxim’s ongoing security efforts, Quicktime will be removed from all Windows computers effective immediately.
Apple recently announced that it is no longer maintaining support for the product on Windows and as a result will no longer be issuing security updates to patch known vulnerabilities. In addition, two serious vulnerabilities for Quicktime for Windows have been identified that could be used to disseminate Zero Day exploits that would go undetected with current monitoring and prevention tools. For these reasons, Quicktime for Windows will no longer be allowed on Maxim managed systems as it poses a serious security vulnerability.
