Authentication policy silos
Authentication policy silos are similar to containers where we can assign user accounts, computer accounts, and service accounts. Then, these accounts can be managed by the authentication policies.
This feature requires the following prerequisites:
- All domain controllers in the domain must be based on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019, or Windows Server 2022.
- The domain's functional level must be Windows Server 2012 R2 or higher
- Domain controllers must be configured to support Dynamic Access Control (DAC)
- Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows 10, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2016, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2022 domain members must be configured to support DAC
Once all the prerequisites are in place, we can look into the configuration of authentication policies.
