Upgrading to a more recent version is paramount to your security. What Does End of Life Mean for Software? Essentially, when a software reaches EOL (also known as End of Support or EOS), it means that the developer is taking the program off of life support. While it will remain as functional as it was after its last update, it will no longer receive any new security parameters or protections. As a result, any organization that still uses it will be subject to increased and unavoidable security threats that their solutions are not equipped to handle. After October 13, 2020, Office 365 will no longer be fully compatible with Office 2010 clients for their email and productivity services.

This means that it is absolutely essential that, if your organization is using Office 2010 or anything that predates it, you take the necessary steps to upgrade to a more secure, recent solution: Office 365. Not Sure Which Version of Office You’re Working With? Checking your current version of Office is simple: From one of your Office applications, choose File and then Office Account. Your version number can be found under Product Information. If this isn’t available, the Help page also displays this number.
