Entra Connect gets a 2026 cutoff as Microsoft urges Tier 0 treatment

Microsoft Entra Connect administrators have a firm upgrade deadline: synchronization will stop on September 30, 2026, unless the service runs version 2.5.79.0 or later. The deadline adds urgency to a broader security reset: Entra Connect should be protected as Tier 0 infrastructure, not deployed like ordinary middleware.
