To maintain the security and integrity of the campus network, only computers running on a supported version are authorized to connect. Once support ends, no security patches will be provided, leaving those machines exposed to security vulnerabilities and potential attacks.
If your department/unit/college still have machines running on these systems, please plan for their replacement or upgrade by the above end of support date. Otherwise, they would be blocked from accessing the Campus Network for the sake of security when Microsoft support ends.
ITSC will continue communicating with your IT support on these upgrades and providing them with technical advice. Please discuss with your IT support to decide the plan.
