Should I Upgrade Exchange Server 2019 from CU11 to CU12?

I have an Exchange Server 2019 with CU11 which is running perfectly. I see Microsoft is still providing updates for CU11. I am getting ready to put in Hybrid Modern Authentication, so I am a bit torn as whether I should upgrade to CU12 first. This is a production server, so I can't afford extended downtime.

Thanks.

    Hi, you really should upgrade. The security updates for CU11 will stop once CU13 is out then you will have little choice and if a security update is required ASAP, it will then mean upgrading to the next CU then applying the latest SU.

    Better to be in a position where you only need to apply a SU if needed.
