Includes a new group policy to allow non-compliant device accounts (those that use vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections). Even when DCs are running in enforcement mode or after the Enforcement phase starts, allowed devices will not be refused connection.
Vulnerable If a non-compliant DC cannot support secure RPC with Netlogon secure channel before the DCs are in enforcement mode, add the DC using the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy described below.
Warning Allowing DCs to use vulnerable connections by the group policy will make the forest vulnerable to attack. The end goal should be to address and remove all accounts from this group policy.
Vulnerable If a non-compliant device cannot support secure RPC with Netlogon secure channel before DCs are in enforcement mode, add the device using the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy described below.
Warning Allowing device accounts to use vulnerable connections by the group policy will put these AD accounts at risk. The end goal should be to address and remove all accounts from this group policy.
Use the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy to add non-compliant accounts. This should only be considered a short-term remedy until non-compliant devices are addressed as described above. Note Allowing vulnerable connections from non-compliant devices might have unknown security impact and should be allowed with caution.
Add those machine accounts to the security group(s) as needed. Best practice Use security groups in the group policy and add accounts to the group so that membership is replicated through normal AD replication. This avoids frequent group policy updates and replication delays.
After all non-compliant devices have been addressed, either by enabling secure RPC or by allowing vulnerable connections with the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy, set the FullSecureChannelProtection registry key to 1.
Note If you are using the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy, ensure that the group policy has been replicated and applied to all DCs before setting the FullSecureChannelProtection registry key.
Deploying updates released February 9, 2021 or later will turn on DC enforcement mode. DC enforcement mode is when all Netlogon connections are either required to use secure RPC or the account must have been added to the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy. At this time, the FullSecureChannelProtection registry key is no longer needed and will no longer be supported.
The Netlogon service allowed a vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connection because the machine account is allowed in the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy.
Warning: Using vulnerable Netlogon secure channels will expose the domain-joined devices to attack. To protect your device from attack, remove a machine account from \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy after the third-party Netlogon client has been updated.

The Netlogon service allowed a vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connection because the trust account is allowed in the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy.
Warning: Using vulnerable Netlogon secure channels will expose Active Directory forests to attack. To protect your Active Directory forests from attack, all trusts must use secure RPC with Netlogon secure channel. Remove a trust account from \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy after the third-party Netlogon client on the domain controllers have been updated.

Delays in AD and Sysvol replication or group policy application failures on the authenticating DC might cause the changes to the group policy \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy to be absent and result in the account being denied.
If you have configured the policy to contain a group and made group membership changes to add the account, check that the DC which denied the connection has replicated the group membership changes locally. Note It is not recommended to add the accounts directly to the group policy.
Ensure none of the devices added to the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy have enterprise-admin or domain-admin privilege services, such as SCCM or Microsoft Exchange. Note Any device in the allow list will be allowed to use vulnerable connections and could expose your environment to the attack.
Active Directory machine accounts for domain joined third-party devices are not protected until enforcement mode is deployed. Machine accounts are also not protected if they are added to the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy.
Enable enforcement mode to deny vulnerable connections from non-compliant third-party device identities. Note With enforcement mode enabled, any third-party device identities which have been added to the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy will still be vulnerable and could allow an attacker unauthorized access to your network or devices.
Enforcement mode tells the domain controllers to not allow Netlogon connections from devices that do not use secure RPC unless those device account have been added to \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy.
Only machine accounts for devices that cannot be made secure by enabling Secure RPC on the Netlogon Secure Channel should be added to the group policy. It is recommended to make these devices compliant or replace these devices to protect your environment.
If you have a third-party device that does not support Secure RPC for the Netlogon Secure Channel and you want to enable enforcement mode then you should add the machine account for that device to the group policy. This is not recommended and could leave your domain in a potentially vulnerable state. It is recommended to use this group policy to allow time to update or replace any third-party devices to make them compliant.
Enforcement mode should be enabled as soon as possible. Any third-party device will need to be addressed either by making them compliant or by adding them to \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy. Note Any device in the allow list will be allowed to use vulnerable connections and could expose your environment to the attack.
Phase starting with the February 9, 2021 updates where enforcement mode will be enabled on all Windows Domain Controllers, regardless of the registry setting. DCs will deny vulnerable connections from all non-compliant devices, unless they are added to the \"Domain controller: Allow vulnerable Netlogon secure channel connections\" group policy.
Ensuring that the DirectAccess Client Settings group policy has been applied to the client is one of the first steps in troubleshooting failed DirectAccess connections. While it is possible to use gpresult to do this, using the Get-DAClientExperienceConfiguration PowerShell command is much simpler. If DirectAccess client settings have been applied, the output of the command will include information such as the IPsec tunnel endpoint IPv6 addresses and the Network Connectivity Assistant (NCA) corporate resource URL. If DirectAccess client settings have not been applied, this information will be missing.
We have a group policy that is not being applied properly for some reason. Where do we look to diagnose and see logs as to why it is not working Are there any good tools that will test the group policies we have enabled
The gpupdate /force command is probably the most used group policy update command. When you use the /force switch, all the policy settings are reapplied. For most use cases this is perfectly fine, but keep in mind, when you have a lot of group policies objects (GPO) or in a large environment, using the /force will put a huge load on the domain controllers.
Check the Security Filtering settings in your policy. By default, all new GPO objects in the domain have the permissions for the Authenticated Users group enabled. This group includes all users and computers in the domain. It means the policy will be applied to all users and computers within its scope.
Also, check that the group you have added to the Security Filtering has Read and Apply group policy permissions with the Allow option checked in the GPO -> Delegation -> Advanced tab.
Configure Citrix policies to control user access and session environments. Citrix policies are the most efficient method of controlling connection, security, and bandwidth settings. You can create policies for specific groups of users, devices, or connection types. Each policy can contain multiple settings.
Once your PC restarts, the registry. The pol file will be recreated, which should fix the Group Policy error in Windows 10. Many users reported that this solution fixed their problem with corrupted local group policy, so try it out.
We do not anticipate any changes to how enterprises currently manage their fleet and trusted enterprise CAs, such as through group policy, macOS Keychain Access, or system management tools like Puppet. 59ce067264
