In the Tweet, NCSA reported that the Apple company warned its users about the security issues that can result from not updating Apple devices. The specific devices that are endangered by these "security holes" are iPhone’s iOS 16.3.0, iPad tablet’s iPadOS 16.3.0, and Macbook laptop’s macOS Ventura 13.2.0. 

The NCSA explained that if Apple users' devices are not updated, then their operating systems are vulnerable to cyberattacks, which threaten the security of a user's personal information, therefore the agency recommended Apple users update their devices immediately in order to avoid data theft of an individual or any organization affiliated with him or her.
