Businesses have entered the critical phase between planning and full-scale implementation for the Windows 10 → Windows 11 transition, and the calendar is unforgiving: Windows 10 support ends on October 14, 2025 — which means device readiness, compatibility validation and a staged deployment plan...

With the clock ticking toward Windows 10’s end of support on October 14, 2025, organisations that still treat migration as a planning exercise run a growing risk of being forced into costly, disruptive decisions at the worst possible moment; moving now from planning to implementation secures...

Battlefield 6’s PC system requirements draw a clear line between playable mid‑range rigs and the high‑end hardware needed for native 4K and competitive high‑refresh play — and they pair those performance tiers with strict platform‑security demands that will shape upgrade decisions and...
EA’s PC requirements for Battlefield 6 land as a pragmatic, security-first baseline: you can play the game on mid-range hardware, but meeting the developer’s anti-cheat and platform-security demands will reshape upgrade decisions for a notable portion of the PC audience. rview

Battlefield 6’s updated PC specs make one thing clear: you can play the game on a surprisingly wide range of hardware, but maxing it out will still demand modern, high-end components — and you’ll need to meet new security requirements that affect compatibility and system configuration...
Microsoft’s official support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025 — and that deadline turns a decade-old, still‑widely used operating system into a growing security liability unless you act now. 10 has been a workhorse for hundreds of millions of PCs, but when Microsoft stops shipping...

Hotpatch-ready fleets start with one infrastructure choice: enable Virtualization‑based Security (VBS) correctly and at scale — doing so is the single most important step to ensure your Windows devices are eligible for Microsoft’s hotpatch model and to materially reduce reboot-driven downtime...
Hotpatch readiness is no longer an optional optimization for modern Windows fleets — it’s a foundational capability for any organization that values continuous uptime, rapid security response, and simplified update logistics. Enabling Virtualization‑based Security (VBS) at scale is the single...
Windows 11 ships with a far stronger security baseline than its predecessors, but real-world attackers and configuration gaps still find workarounds—meaning Defender and Windows Security are necessary, not sufficient, for modern threat defense. (webpronews.com)
Background
Windows 11’s built-in...
Windows Security is a strong baseline for protecting Windows 11 devices, but it was never designed to be a human-proof, one-stop solution — there are modern threats that built-in tools cannot fully mitigate, and relying on default protection alone leaves significant gaps in phishing...
Microsoft’s latest cumulative rollup for Windows 10, KB5063709, quietly arrived as part of the August Patch Tuesday cycle and does what Microsoft says it will: restore a broken ESU enrollment flow, harden firmware-level protections, and tidy up a handful of stability and input regressions as the...
Microsoft’s latest move to blunt the impact of laptop failures and cyber incidents is pragmatic, bluntly honest, and engineered to sell a comfort-level businesses didn’t know they needed: a short-term, managed Cloud PC that employees can be switched onto when their physical machines fail, are...
Windows 11’s security-first architecture is arriving at a critical moment for colleges and universities, delivering a broad set of built-in protections—passwordless sign-on, hardware-based isolation, and Microsoft Defender tooling—that aim to reduce ransomware risk and ease management burdens...
Microsoft released KB5064010 on August 12, 2025 — a hotpatch targeted at Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024 (OS Build 26100.4851) that delivers a focused set of security fixes designed to take effect without the usual reboot required by standard cumulative updates. (support.microsoft.com)...
Microsoft released a hotpatch for Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024 today — KB5064010 (OS Build 26100.4851) — delivering targeted security and quality improvements while bundling the latest servicing stack update and extending hotpatch availability to eligible Arm64 Enterprise devices...
Microsoft’s security roadmap for Windows is increasingly explicit: stronger protections will arrive, but many of them require newer silicon and faster refresh cycles — meaning organizations that want to stay secure will need to buy into both Windows 11 (and beyond) and modern hardware platforms...
A single‑plaintiff lawsuit filed in San Diego has turned what Microsoft calls a routine product lifecycle milestone into a flashpoint over security, consumer choice and the company’s AI strategy—alleging that ending free Windows 10 support will abandon as many as hundreds of millions of...

Microsoft’s August Windows 11 update is less a routine patch and more a clear statement of intent: the OS is evolving into an AI-first platform where the system sees, suggests, and—when asked—acts, on behalf of the user.
