With Broadcom's SEP RU5 being the last version that supports 32-bit Windows operating systems, and having its end of service set for the end of 2025, I'm curious about what others plan to do for antivirus solutions if they're stuck on a 32-bit system. Have you thought about any alternatives or backup strategies?

In our case, we have legacy Windows systems that don't use any antivirus software at all. Given the risks, it's a tough balancing act.

For those on 32-bit Windows 10, I've heard that some extended support plans can keep things running. If you're operating off networks, maybe Windows Defender could be a viable antivirus option, though.

If you're using a system like Windows 10 or Server 2008 that's no longer supported, the effectiveness of antivirus might not matter as much. If you're really stuck using these outdated systems, you might want to isolate them on a separate VLAN or keep them completely offline.
