Disclaimer:

For supplier-supported third-party software (such as operating systems and bundled software) and non-Dell Technologies Branded third-party devices, software updates are delivered by the third-party supplier pursuant to applicable warranties, service contracts, or policies. Dell Technologies is not responsible for such updates. 


Note: Dell Technologies software interoperability support for such third-party software is subject to the life cycle of the third-party software. 


Due to variations in product lines and dependencies on third-party component providers, Dell Technologies cannot guarantee that security support is generally available for all components of a given product until its end of security support or that all components of a product are subject to the same security support period (such as when support for a third-party component ends prior to the end of the Dell security support period). Sometimes, mitigation of a security issue might require a move to a newer product.
