The United States Department of Defense (DoD) is planning on having all U.S. DoD agencies upgrade their systems to Windows 10 by Feb. 2017.
In total, including all laptops, desktops and surface devices, adds up to around 4 million systems running Windows. For Microsoft, this is great news, as the move reinforces the tech giant’s claims that Windows 10 can offer the necessary level of security that enterprises of any size are looking for.
The deployment of Microsoft’s latest platform begins immediately and represents the largest enterprise deployment of Windows 10 to date.
Susie Adams, Chief Technology Officer, Microsoft Federal, says that the move will also help the DoD lower the cost of IT and simplify its operating environment.
