AD Bridge 26.2 – RC4 removed from authentication and domain join protocols
AD Bridge no longer uses RC4 in authentication and domain join protocols, in preparation for Microsoft’s deprecation of RC4 in Active Directory.
The change spans Kerberos configuration and encryption-type handling, along with protocol-level updates to SAMR, Netlogon, Schannel, WKSSVC, machine password changes and NTLM message protocol. Together, these reduce reliance on legacy cryptography and improve your security posture.
