Windows Server 2016 officially reaches end of support on January 12, 2027, and businesses still relying on it face growing security, compliance, and operational risks.

As cyber threats continue to evolve, older server platforms become increasingly vulnerable to:

• Ransomware and cyberattacks
• Software compatibility issues
• Compliance and cyber insurance concerns
• Hardware failures and downtime

Many modern applications and security platforms are already reducing support for aging infrastructure, making upgrades more urgent than ever.

The good news? A server refresh is also an opportunity to improve:

• Security
• Performance
• Backup and disaster recovery
• Remote work and cloud integration

At Dunham Connect, we help businesses modernize aging infrastructure before it becomes a costly problem.

If your organization is still running Windows Server 2016, now is the time to start planning your next move.
