    Hello,

    The updates described in KB5004442 which will be coming in June of 2022 will "force" a hardened DCOM setting for clients. Will these changes be released in the cumulative security update for the month of June or will it be a separate update? If the June update is skipped, will the changes be applied in future cumulative updates? If a user were to skip the June 2022 update which applies the hardening settings in KB5004442, would the settings be applied in any future cumulative update?
