Windows
Use the Windows dashboard in Risk Monitor to get an overview of the support status of the Windows installations in your IT estate.
Description
The dashboard shows data related to the Windows operating system group selected in the Operating system group filter.
The Device count by installed Windows update chart will quickly give you an overview of the support status of the Windows installations in your IT estate. A red bar indicates installations of an update version that is no longer supported and should be upgraded.
In the Windows update detail table, you can look up a specific update version to see if it is out of support (the value in the OS support ended column is set to True). If the update version is out of support you can estimate the severity by checking the number of vulnerabilities included in the update version (the value in the Unique vulnerabilities column) and the number of affected devices (the value in the Inventoried devices column). You can also see if there is a later update version still in support (the value in the OS support ended column is set to False) that you can upgrade to.
