CRANFORD, N.J., Jan. 8, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Maintech, Incorporated, a leader in providing Enterprise-wide IT Infrastructure Managed Services and Data Center Support and Management, today announces that it has a service solution available to assist customers migrating from Windows 7 to Windows 10.
Microsoft Windows 7 operating system will reach the "End of Service" date for extended support on January 14, 2020. Once the end date is reached, Microsoft will no longer support Windows 7 operating system with any patches for functionality or for security.
"Security vulnerabilities in desktops and laptops used to access corporate systems can expose company and customer data to risks," said Frank D'Alessio, President at Maintech. "Many organizations face technological and/or purchase cycle timing challenges to acquire new systems with the most current operating system installed, so upgrading current systems will be the smart solution for many customers," D'Alessio further stated.
Upgrading systems to Windows 10 will be a task that requires a great deal of project planning. Navigating performance, compatibility and other change issues without disruption to the enterprise requires experience, certified skillsets and a structured approach; something Maintech has been planning in their Projects group for many months. Security breaches and "hacks" have been in the news and ensuring that systems are up to date to meet these threats is essential.
"Reports following data breaches in recent years have identified that 70% or more of successful cyberattacks have been due to hacks to known vulnerabilities software where a patch was available. In this scenario, no patch will be available in Windows 7. Our service teams will work with a client to develop the plan and execute the migration to address the Windows 7 End-of-Life issue," stated D'Alessio.
As enterprise level customers look for expert professional service solutions with global coverage to simplify their support infrastructures and help secure their environment, Maintech is positioned to help them succeed. Maintech Project Management Office (PMO) has dozens of project managers who work with hundreds of dedicated field engineers to deliver solutions in the US and internationally.
