Windows update has an automatic feature that search for new updates on Windows. This can be configure on your computer and can be set weather you want to automatically updates or reminds you for updates.
All Windows has it's own built-in firewall. And this firewall is good enough to protect computer intruders. Most specially, you company need this very badly to protect your computer files and it's data saved.
To check if Windows Firewall is up to date, you can do the following.
Go to Start, Control Panel
Select System and Security
Click Windows Firewall
It'll show if Firewall is enabled or not
Update the security software if needed
If you are using a 3rd party security software such as McAfee, Norton or any type of security program, you can check the latest update's time and date.
Most security software has this information to identify if this software is up to date. If it does, then you will not going to worry because the software is definitely protecting your computer to any threat on the Internet.
