-**Active Directory schema updates**: Three new log database files are introduced that extend the Active Directory schema: `sch89.ldf`, `sch90.ldf`, and `sch91.ldf`. The AD LDS equivalent schema updates are in `MS-ADAM-Upgrade3.ldf`. To learn more about previous schema updates, see [Windows Server Active Directory schema updates](../identity/ad-ds/deploy/Schema-Updates.md).

-**Active Directory object repair**: Enterprise administrators can now repair objects with the missing core attributes `SamAccountType` and `ObjectCategory`. Enterprise administrators can reset the `LastLogonTimeStamp` attribute on an object to the current time. These operations are achieved through a new [RootDSE](/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-adts/fc74972f-b267-4c1a-8716-0f5b48cf52b9) modify operation feature on the affected object called `fixupObjectState`.

-**Channel binding audit support**: You can now enable events 3074 and 3075 for Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) channel binding. When the channel binding policy is modified to a more secure setting, an administrator can identify devices in the environment that don't support or fail channel binding. These audit events are also available in Windows Server 2022 and later via [KB4520412](https://support.microsoft.com/topic/2020-2023-and-2024-ldap-channel-binding-and-ldap-signing-requirements-for-windows-kb4520412-ef185fb8-00f7-167d-744c-f299a66fc00a).

-**Default LDAP signing enforcement**: All new Active Directory deployments require LDAP signing by default through the "Domain controller: LDAP server signing requirements enforcement" Group Policy setting. This policy takes precedence over the "Domain controller: LDAP server signing requirements" policy. To learn more, see [LDAP signing for Active Directory Domain Services](../identity/ad-ds/ldap-signing.md).

-**DC-location algorithm improvements**: The DC discovery algorithm provides new functionality with improvements to mapping of short NetBIOS-style domain names to DNS-style domain names. To learn more, see [Locating domain controllers in Windows and Windows Server](../identity/ad-ds/manage/dc-locator.md).

-**Kerberos changes for Algorithms used for Ticket Granting Tickets**: The Kerberos Distribution Center will no longer issue Ticket Granting Tickets using RC4 encryption, such as RC4-HMAC(NT).

-**Kerberos changes for supported encryption type configuration**: Kerberos no longer honors the legacy registry key REG_DWORD `SupportedEncryptionTypes` found in the path `HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\Kerberos\Parameters`, Microsoft recommends using group policy instead. To learn more about the group policy settings, see [Network security: Configure encryption types allowed for Kerberos](/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-10/security/threat-protection/security-policy-settings/network-security-configure-encryption-types-allowed-for-kerberos).

-**LDAP encryption by default**: All LDAP client communication after a Simple Authentication and Security Layer (SASL) bind uses LDAP sealing by default. To learn more about SASL, see [SASL Authentication](/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-adts/989e0748-0953-455d-9d37-d08dfbf3998b).

-**LDAP support for Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.3**: LDAP uses the latest SCHANNEL implementation and supports TLS 1.3 for LDAP over TLS connections. Using TLS 1.3 eliminates obsolete cryptographic algorithms and enhances security over older versions. TLS 1.3 aims to encrypt as much of the handshake as possible. To learn more, see [Protocols in TLS/SSL (Schannel SSP)](/windows/win32/secauthn/protocols-in-tls-ssl--schannel-ssp-) and [TLS Cipher Suites in Windows Server 2022](/windows/win32/secauthn/tls-cipher-suites-in-windows-server-2022).

-**Legacy Security Account Manager (SAM) remote procedure call (RPC) password change behavior**: Secure protocols such as Kerberos are the preferred way to change domain user passwords. On DCs, the latest SAM RPC password change method [SamrUnicodeChangePasswordUser4](/openspecs/windows_protocols/ms-samr/bbc1c5e5-9b81-4038-b2b9-c87d3569ed38) by using Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) is accepted by default when it's called remotely. The following legacy SAM RPC methods are blocked by default when they're called remotely:
