QNAP Extends Security Updates for EOL Products
Taipei, Taiwan,ngày 14 tháng Hai năm 2022 - QNAP® Systems, Inc., today announced that it has extended the end date of Technical Support and Security Updates for some End of Life (EOL) models, helping users to defend against evolving security threats and allowing users to have more time to implement device upgrades.
EOL models may lack computational capabilities, be short on operational memory, be unable to receive up-to-date component drivers, or possess other technical constraints or deprecated technology. Due to these reasons, QNAP normally maintains security updates for 4 years after a product passes its EOL date. As a special effort to help users protect their devices from today’s security threats, QNAP has extended security updates for some EOL models till October 2022.
The extended end date of Technical Support and Security Updates applies as below:
| CPU Architecture | Last Supported NAS OS Version for the Model | Extended Date |
| x86 64-bit models or ARM models that support one of the NAS OS versions on the right. | QTS 4.2.6 QTS 4.3.3 QTS 4.3.6 QTS 4.4.1 | Effectively till October 2022 |
The support for EOL models will be limited to high or critical security updates until the end of Technical Support and Security Updates date. For users to protect data from security threats growing along with the technology, QNAP recommends that users do not connect the EOL device to the internet while following the advice in “What is the best practice for enhancing NAS security?”.
