Dear Valued Csutomer

On March 1st, Google released an update to all Chrome platforms to address a known vulnerability(CVE-2019-5786), which was pushed down via the auto-update function of Chrome. This is a serious vulnerability that allows a full exploitation that escapes the sandbox and leads to remote code execution, and it’s actively being exploited by hackers in the wild. It’s very important that you check your Chrome browser to verify you are updated to version 72.0.3626.121 or later. This applies to Chrome browsers running on Windows, Mac and Linux
How to check for an update and see the current browser version on your computer:


1.    On your computer, open Chrome.
2.    At the top right, click the 3-dots menu icon.
3.    Click Help, then select About Google Chrome.


The current version number is the series of numbers beneath the "Google Chrome" heading. Chrome will check for updates when you're on this page.
Click Relaunch to apply any available update.
