Legacy System
An information system that remains in active use but is built on outdated technology. Such systems are typically difficult to replace due to high migration costs and deep business dependencies, and are commonly found in industrial control and enterprise management domains.
Timeline (last 90 days)
Legacy systems usually refer to software systems that are still running but have outdated architectures and are difficult to modify quickly; many e-commerce customer service systems were built ten years ago or even earlier, when the design assumed requests came from real people.
The core reason legacy systems are difficult to abandon is that business value and technical carrier are rigidly bound together, making the cost and risk of migration far greater than maintaining the status quo.

Legacy systems are typically difficult to integrate with modern data platforms, forming data silos that hinder enterprise-wide data analytics and decision-making.
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it" has become the default strategy for many IT decision-makers.
Outdated systems are more prone to becoming breeding grounds for security vulnerabilities and are also harder to keep compliant with continuously updated regulatory requirements.
A large number of legacy systems in the critical infrastructure sector do not support modern identity protocols, and the convergence of OT and IT systems introduces compatibility challenges, making full zero-trust implementation a lengthy migration process.
