Thankfully for us, I suppose, many of those smaller organizations are
moving all their stuff to "the cloud", where at least huge corporate
overlords have the chance to disable and remove obsolete feature sets.
Ideally because everything they use is wrapped inside a friendly
HTML5/CSS/Javascript GUI inside a browser window so their 'app' is actually
a full screen browser session.

As long as their OS is fully updated, as Windows 10 will try to keep itself
as long as people don't tamper with its defaults, and they're running a
recent browser version...
