These applications may have been built for Windows 10\u2014and might not be compatible with Windows 11 or newer platforms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This often leads to employees using unapproved workarounds: personal devices, off-the-grid tools, or cloud accounts with poor security controls.
