Despite rapid OS refresh cycles, many organizations continue to run older systems such as Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2. In many cases, critical line-of-business applications only run on older frameworks, specialized production machines rely on vendor-locked drivers, or long hardware replacement cycles make immediate upgrades unrealistic. Some companies also operate regulated or validated environments where any OS change requires extensive re-certification.

Until now, these legacy endpoints posed a persistent security risk because unsupported or limited protection allowed attackers to exploit vulnerabilities with little resistance.
