PSPF Direction 002-2026 requires Australian government agencies to identify legacy technology, assess risk and develop appropriate mitigation plans. But not every legacyidentified system needs to be replaced. Age or vendor support status may inform the assessment, but neither should determine the response on its own.
This practical, independent guide from Rimini Street provides a repeatable framework for assessing what continues to serve your agency well, deciding where action is required and prioritising investment accordingly.
With it, you'll learn how to:
- Assess risk holistically across security, architecture, operations and commercial considerations
- Evaluate support and maintenance exposure and identify credible alternatives
- Compare the risk of continued operation with the risk of change
- Choose the appropriate response: sustain and protect, remediate, modernise, replace or retire
- Apply layered controls and document decisions so they can be reviewed as risks evolve
Discover how to make technology decisions based on evidence, risk and value — not age alone.
