On April 14th 2026, Microsoft released KB updates that conflict with Netwrix Threat Prevention (formerly StealthINTERCEPT) agents used by Threat Manager for AD to collect AD event data. If these KBs are applied before updating the agents, certain LDAP and Kerberos events will no longer be captured or blocked.
Netwrix recommends delaying the deployment of these KBs if the impacted event types are important to your organization. The Netwrix development and QA teams are working on updated agents compatible with these KBs and will send another notice when they are available.
Important Details
If your Threat Manager for AD deployment does not use Threat Prevention (formerly StealthINTERCEPT) agents for the following activity event collection, or such events are not deemed important, you may elect to deploy the following Microsoft KBs in advance of updated Netwrix Threat Prevention agents.
No other aspect of Threat Manager operation is impacted by the April 14th 2026 KBs beyond what is described below. There is no adverse impact to domain controllers if the KBs are deployed without updating the agents.
