End-of-Service technology does not receive critical patches and updates, making it easier for threat actors to exploit.  Additionally, privacy implications could arise if the technology stores sensitive information. To avoid these risks, upgrade to a supported technology with routine internal security measures and a support team that creates and releases updates and patches.
