# Here’s a summary of the article on Microsoft enabling Windows Extended Protection on Exchange servers:
– Microsoft is taking steps to enhance security by automatically enabling Windows Extended Protection on Exchange servers.
– The change will occur after installing the 2024 H1 Cumulative Update (CU14) for Exchange servers.
– Windows Extended Protection helps prevent man-in-the-middle attacks by adding an extra layer of security for communications between clients and servers.
## My hot take:
For hackers trying to sneak into Exchange servers, this update is like adding an extra lock to the door and throwing away the key – a real headache! Kudos to Microsoft for beefing up security in their own witty way.
