Another way forward is to migrate to cloud. Migrating to cloud such as OCI isn't as scary as it sounds, and there are multiple benefits of doing so, such as security, simplification and cost.

With Oracle Cloud, you only pay for what you use.

We can only advise you take action, but doing nothing is technically an option, as you'll enter 'sustained support', however, we strongly recommend against this. Not doing anything will risk your business's security as you will be left with no monitoring and patching. If your database goes down, your business can't operate.
