As the Federal government modernizes IT and adopts the cloud, many agencies still run legacy network and security hardware in their environments. But the reasons to accelerate modernization are compelling: hardware appliances lack modern capabilities; are expensive to deploy, scale, and maintain; are vulnerable to cyber threats; and may no longer be supported by the vendor.

According to CISA, “The imminent threat of exploitation to agency information systems running End-of-Support (EOS) edge devices is substantial and constant, resulting in a significant threat to federal property. CISA is aware of widespread exploitation campaigns by advanced threat actors targeting EOS edge devices.” (February 2026)
