Recently, there has been a surge in ransomware and malicious software attack incidents. Once a user's computer is infected with such malicious software, it could result in the encryption of all accessible files on the computer (including network drives and shared folders), rendering them inaccessible and unreadable. In more serious cases, an infected computer could also be utilized as a launching point for targeted attacks on other entities.

Using versions of Office that are no longer supported, or using Office on unsupported operating systems, may cause performance and reliability issues over time.
