One of the reasons so many organizations clung to Windows XP for so long was the significant differences in compatibility between that operating system and Windows 7 or Windows 8.įor Paul Watts, distinguished analyst at the Information Security Forum, while there are hardware compatibility challenges when upgrading to Windows 11, they’re not as significant as those of the past. Indeed, in the words of one member of the ITPro Network, the public sector can be “laggy in places”, giving the example of one Windows 7 roll-out completing “just as everyone else was working on projects for Windows 10”. For those in the public sector, education, and smaller businesses, however, the prospect of replacing their entire IT estate is daunting. For larger businesses that refresh their IT estate on a regular basis (every five years, for example), their hardware is likely to already be in line with Windows 11 requirements by the deadline. While it enhances the security of any machine – undoubtedly a good thing – it isn’t ubiquitous. The primary hurdle to Windows 11 adoption is the need for a TPM 2.0 chip.
