How will this work for government clients that need a secure environment?

The LTSC edition is unaffected.

You _can_ buy it, but it's a bit of a quest. You need to register as a company and buy at least five Windows licenses (you don't have to use them), and after that you can get a license for an LTSC version.

It works out to about $700, if you want to go down this route.

They will probably charge extra for it. I asked a public school IT person how he was handling FERPA with the new privacy violations on windows 10, and the answer was paying exorbitant fees.

They will likely log into a domain. If they need something offline/air gapped, I'm not sure either.

LTSC is another option.
