Still Using Windows XP? — Your Time Is Up. [Lance Stone](https://ontimetech.valeonetworks.com/blog/author/ulisticadmin) : May 15, 2014, 10:49:11 AM [Managed IT Services](https://ontimetech.valeonetworks.com/blog/tag/managed-it-services) ![Windows XP Healthcare](https://ontimetech.valeonetworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Blog%20Images/Imported_Blog_Media/Windows-XP-Healthcare-1.jpg?width=200&name=Windows-XP-Healthcare-1.jpg)Microsoft has officially stopped delivering technical assistance or software updates for Windows XP. They warn us: “These include security updates that can help protect your PC from harmful viruses, spyware, and other malicious software, which can steal your personal information.” **However despite the years of warning, nearly 20% of businesses still run XP.  Healthcare organizations are particularly vulnerable, because using Windows XP risks noncompliance with HIPAA. Ironically, the cost of upgrading to a newer operating system is much less expensive than the price of a HIPAA settlement.** Whether you run a healthcare organization or other type of business, if you’re using XP, it’s only a matter of time before you’ll be impacted by a virus, worm or malware. Call {company} at {phone}, or email us at {email} for more information, or assistance migrating from Windows XP. - [Tweet](https://twitter.com/share) #### ![BusinessOwnerGuidetoM&A-1](https://ontimetech.valeonetworks.com/hs-fs/hubfs/BusinessOwnerGuidetoM%26A-1.png?width=303&height=209&name=BusinessOwnerGuidetoM%26A-1.png) #### Download our eBook*THE ULTIMATE ROADMAP TO CMMC COMPLIANCE* by filling out the form below!
