Legacy technology is a significant hurdle for business growth, as it not only delays modernization efforts but also poses security risks that can lead to exploitation by attackers.
The approach of 'if it’s working, leave it alone' is prevalent among organizations with legacy systems, often resulting from the extensive investment into these outdated technologies.
Legacy technology, while still providing some value, can create vulnerabilities in organizations. An example can be seen in outdated systems like Intel 286 computers and the 1990s Microsoft Office Suite still in use.
Risk avoidance and low ROI on updating systems causes CIOs to overlook the potential dangers of maintaining outdated technology, making legacy systems a double-edged sword.
