Recorded live at the 2026 Hybrid Identity Protection Conference in Nashville, this episode features Linda Taylor, Principal Software Engineer at Microsoft. Linda and Sean talk about why NTLM is officially deprecated, how silent NTLM fallback keeps it running in almost every AD forest, and how new auditing and features like IAKerb and Local KDC are helping security teams prepare their organizations for a Windows release with NTLM off by default.
