In 2002
Microsoft introduced its Support Lifecycle policy
based on customer feedback to have more transparency and predictability of
support for Microsoft products.
WHY IS SUPPORT ENDING FOR WINDOWS XP SP3 AND OFFICE 2003?
Windows XP SP3
and Office 2003 will go out of support on April 8, 2014, if your organization has not started the
migration to a modern PC, you are late. Based on historical customer deployment
data, the average enterprise deployment can take 18 to 32 months from business
case through full deployment. To ensure you remain on supported versions of
Windows and Office, you should begin your planning and application testing
immediately to ensure you deploy before end of support.
WHAT DOES END OF SUPPORT MEAN TO YOU?
It means you should take action. After April 8,
2014, there will be no new security updates, non-security hotfixes, free or
paid assisted support options or online technical content updates.
Running Windows XP SP3 and
Office 2003 in your environment after their end of support date may expose
your company to potential risks, such as:
- Security & Compliance Risks — Unsupported and unpatched environments are vulnerable to security risks. This may result in an officially recognized control failure by an internal or external audit body, leading to suspension of certifications, and/or public notification of the organization’s inability to maintain its systems and customer information.
