Windows 10 will reach end-of-support today.

Did you know the risk of a cyber security incident is much higher when you’re using a product that isn’t supported anymore?

‘End-of-support’ is when a device, software or system no longer receives technical support, like software updates. This could leave you vulnerable to cyber attacks.

Other common end of support products include Windows 7, Apple iOS 14.8.1, Apple macOS BigSur and Android 10.

Although your device or software will continue to function, the best way to stay protected is to upgrade to a supported product, like Windows 11. But if you can’t do this, there are still things you can do to take action and stay secure.
