Milton Security Provides Stopgap For Windows XP Endpoints

FULLERTON, Calif., April 7, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Milton Security Group announces a special solution for those customers who have not migrated away from Windows XP.  With the Microsoft Windows XP end of life just hours away from now, organizations need to prepare and mitigate.  For those organizations, moving away from Windows XP can be a long process, but with the Edge7200i security appliance, they can mitigate their risks, and plan for the future.

Microsoft will end support for Windows XP on April 8th.  For organizations still running systems on XP, this means that their machines, and therefore their networks, will be increasingly vulnerable to all manner of cyber attacks.  This spells disaster for many organizations that simply cannot afford to replace every XP device on their network.  From large public utilities and government agencies, to small businesses, the risk from Windows XP is still pervasive, and will be a large issue if not contained.

Starting from $1999.00 the Windows XP Special Mitigation package can reduce the overall risk brought about by continuing to run Windows XP in critical organizations.

James McMurry stated, "There is likely to be a number of 0-day security flaws released soon after April 8th.  These flaws will never be patched and business owners will need a way to reduce their exposure from this potential oncoming storm."  Milton Security offers an appliance that will mitigate the oncoming storm.

Milton Security's Edge7200i provides identity-based access to your network.  The Edge can report on what systems are still running XP as well as control the types of traffic coming to and from those XP machine.  This gives the Edge the ability to stop possible threats from ever even touching that XP machine.  

Milton Security encourages companies who have not already replaced Windows XP to begin working on upgrading their systems as soon as possible.  These systems will continue to be a growing security risk as the outdated operating system will not gain any more patches as the rest of the world moves on.  However, using an Edge7200i will buy more time with a mitigated and smaller security hole footprint.

Call Milton Security Group to mitigate the risk from Windows XP, and many other threats, including 0-days.
