Why this needs to change
The weakest areas in this report: what staying as you are keeps costing, and what changes once it is fixed.
costing you now
Versions past end of life keep every vulnerability they already have and collect new ones, the newest libraries and hosting features are closed to you, and every year of waiting makes the upgrade bigger.
what changes
Security fixes start arriving on their own, upgrades stop being a project, and the stack stops being the reason a client says no.
costing you now
Secrets in repositories, accounts without MFA and backups nobody has ever restored are the failures that end a client relationship in a single day.
what changes
Basic hygiene removes incidents that no insurance covers, and the security answers you can give in a tender become a reason to be chosen.
costing you now
Releases depend on a person remembering the steps, so they happen rarely, late, and only when that person is free. Every release is a small gamble taken in front of the client.
what changes
A pipeline turns a release into a button: ship on a Tuesday afternoon, roll back in a minute, and let the pipeline hold the checklist instead of a person.
costing you now
Code that nobody tests or reviews is why a small fix breaks something else, and why the oldest project is the one nobody wants to open.
what changes
Tests and review make change safe, so upgrades, refactors and new hires get cheaper every month after that.

sources // version support dates from endoflife.date (cached for a day; an unreachable API leaves versions ungraded, never failed). Sample projects run through the same Site Audit engine as the rest of Tech Auditor. Everything else is scored from the answers given, and measures left as unknown stay unscored rather than counting as a failure.
