Every device still running Windows 10 is operating without Microsoft security patches — meaning any vulnerability discovered after October 2025 will never be fixed. Attackers actively target end-of-life systems because they know they are permanently unprotected. Your exposure grows every day. We can perform a rapid fleet assessment to identify exactly how many devices are at risk and prioritize the ones that need immediate action.

Windows 11 has strict hardware requirements — including TPM 2.0, a compatible 64-bit processor, and a minimum of 4GB RAM and 64GB storage. Many devices purchased before 2019 will not qualify and will need to be replaced rather than upgraded. We will audit your fleet, identify which devices can be upgraded in place, and provide a clear replacement roadmap for those that cannot — so you can plan and budget with confidence.

Almost certainly, if you are still running unpatched Windows 10 devices. Cyber insurers are increasingly denying claims on networks with end-of-life operating systems. Federal contractors face CMMC and NIST 800-171 violations. Healthcare organizations risk HIPAA audit failures. Payment processors face PCI DSS non-compliance. The cost of a single breach or denied insurance claim will far exceed the cost of upgrading now. We can help you document your remediation plan to satisfy auditors and insurers.

Microsoft’s Extended Security Updates (ESU) program offers a temporary lifeline for organizations that cannot upgrade immediately — but it is expensive and escalates sharply each year. Year 1 costs are already significant, and they roughly double annually through 2028. ESU also does not resolve the underlying compliance risk; it only buys time. In most cases, the total cost of ESU over two to three years exceeds the cost of a full device refresh. We will help you run the numbers so you can make the right call for your organization.

For organizations with 25 or more devices across multiple locations or network segments, we offer a free remote network scan that identifies every Windows 10 device on your network — by hostname, IP address, and OS version — without requiring hands-on access to each machine. You will receive a clear report showing your total Windows 10 exposure, which devices can be upgraded in place, and which must be replaced. This gives you the data you need to build a remediation budget, satisfy an auditor, or respond to an insurance questionnaire — fast. 🔒 Your information is kept strictly confidential and is never shared with third parties.

For smaller organizations, the fastest path to clarity is a Serial Number Audit. Simply provide us with a list of your device serial numbers — from your existing inventory, your IT vendor, or the stickers on the back of each machine — and we will cross-reference them against manufacturer databases to determine Windows 11 upgrade eligibility for every device on your list. No software to install. No network access required. Just a list and a quick turnaround. You will know exactly which devices are upgrade-ready and which need to be replaced — so you can act with confidence instead of guessing.
