EOS is end-of-service and Microsoft has reminded users that various versions of Windows 10, version 21H2 have reached that point. This means that they will no longer automatically receive cyber security patches and other updates.
Microsoft: Windows 10 21H2 has reached end of servicing (bleepingcomputer.com)
The only solution to fixing this new hole in your cyber security plan is to update the impacted devices to a supported version of Windows 10 or Windows 11.
My advice: Either you or your IT support need to check whether these issues impact your systems. You need to have a master document that details your systems, hardware, software, online, networks, back-ups, suppliers etc – so when cyber security (or operational) issues arise you and your support teams can quickly check if you are affected. From there you can take fast, effective action.
