On 14 October 2025, we celebrate Ada Lovelace Day, honouring one of the earliest pioneers of programming, and mark the anniversary of Chuck Yeager’s record-breaking supersonic flight. These milestones remind us that innovation moves fast and it’s only accelerating. On that same day, Microsoft will end support for Windows 10, leaving organisations with a clear choice: modernise or risk falling behind on security, compliance, and insurability.

Upgrading to Windows 11 sounds easy—but in-place OS upgrades can go wrong, and many devices don’t meet the new minimum specs. For MSPs, resellers, distributors, and SMBs, that’s a recipe for downtime, compliance failures, and insurance headaches.

In this webinar, we’ll demystify Windows 10 EOL risks and show you practical steps to protect customer data now. Learn how OpenText Core Endpoint Backup delivers a low-touch, cost-effective solution to secure endpoints—keeping your clients safe, compliant, and ready for the future.

In this insightful webinar, we will explore the history and evolution of data protection, from handwritten documents and carbon copies to modern-day automated digital backups. Data has always needed protection, whether it was 13 copies of the Magna Carta distributed across the UK in 1215 (4 still exist today!) or the vital business records on your hard drive today.

Despite advancements in technology, many organizations are neglecting backup strategies, assuming that cloud providers will take care of everything. This session will address key questions: Why is backup often overlooked in IT budgets? Why do some believe backups are no longer necessary?

We will highlight the critical importance of backups in today’s digital world, whether your data resides on physical devices or in the cloud. Learn how to choose the right backup solutions based on your business's specific needs, data sensitivity, and recovery requirements. Join us to ensure your data remains safe, and recovery is simple and effective when disaster strikes.

Key Takeaways:

• The historical context of backups and why they are essential.
• The dangers of relying solely on cloud providers for data protection.
