If you choose not to upgrade to the latest TYPO3 version after the end of free support for [TYPO3 v10 LTS](https://nitsantech.de/en/blog/typo3-v10-features), you may be exposed to various risks and issues. These risks include: ### **Security vulnerabilities**: Unsupported versions of software may have known security vulnerabilities that are not being addressed through regular updates. Hackers can exploit these vulnerabilities, putting your website and data at risk. ### **Compatibility issues**: Third-party extensions, plugins, and themes may not be compatible with unsupported versions of TYPO3. This can cause errors and problems with your website's functionality. ### **Performance issues**: Unsupported versions of TYPO3 may not be optimized for performance and may not take advantage of the latest hardware and software advancements. ### **Lack of support**: You will not be able to receive free support from TYPO3 if you encounter any issues with your website. Therefore, it is recommended that you upgrade to the latest version of TYPO3 to ensure your website's security, compatibility, and performance. Additionally, you will have access to free support and new features that can improve your website's functionality and user experience. There are several reasons why you may want to consider upgrading to TYPO3 v11 or v12: ### **Security**: The latest versions of [TYPO3](https://nitsantech.de/en/blog/typo3) are more secure and provide better protection against potential security threats.
