Responding to Windows 10 End-of-Service Notifications
Microsoft announced that the regular channel version of Windows 10 has reached the end of its official support lifecycle on October 14, 2025. This notice does not apply to the ESU (Extended Security Updates), LTSC (Long-Term Servicing Channel), or IoT (Internet of Things) editions of Windows 10.
The security updates released in October 2025 will be the final round of official security patches provided by Microsoft for the regular channel version. After this date, systems still operating on this version will no longer receive security updates or official technical support, leaving them exposed to potential security risks and vulnerabilities.
Users and organizations now face a critical challenge in ensuring the ongoing security and protection of devices running unsupported versions.
As an enterprise-grade endpoint security solution, Sangfor Athena EPP delivers continuous security protection for Windows 10 endpoints through the following mechanisms:
1.        Athena EPP will continue to protect Windows 10 systems by synchronizing with Microsoft security updates. It is recommended that users enable the “Vulnerability Scanning and Automatic Patch Repair” feature in the management console to maintain real-time synchronization between endpoints and cloud-based threat intelligence.
2.        Athena EPP utilizes multi-layered detection technologies, including a static AI file analysis engine and a dynamic AI behavior analysis engine, web shell detection, brute-force attack prevention, and more. These components work together to deliver continuous, comprehensive protection against known and emerging threats.
3.        Athena EPP can be integrated with Athena NGFW and Athena XDR to form a unified detection and response architecture. This integration enhances visibility across the network, enables coordinated defense against complex attack chains, and supports closed-loop threat remediation.
If you experience any issues related to threat monitoring, policy configuration, or incident response on Windows 10, please contact our technical support team for assistance at any time.
