ClickCease Endless Lifecycle Support for .NET 6.0 - TuxCare

.NET 6 reached the end of support on Nov 12, 2024.
Since then, Microsoft no longer provides updates.

However, continuing to use .NET 6.0 unprotected
exposes your applications to security vulnerabilities.

Fortunately, with Endless Lifecycle Support for .NET
from TuxCare, there is a secure path forward.

Getting security updates from TuxCare is as safe and reliable as getting them from the
original vendor – developed and tested by our team of .NET security experts.

The TuxCare team also monitors all .NET 8 CVEs to see if backporting is applicable.
