To be a part of this release, secured-core capabilities is brought to help protect hardware, firmware, and Windows Server OS capabilities against advanced security threats. Secured-core server builds on technologies like Windows Defender System Guard and Virtualization-based Security to minimize risk from firmware vulnerabilities and advanced malware. The new release also provides secured connectivity that introduces several new capabilities such as faster and more secure encrypted HTTPS connections, industry standard SMB AES 256 encryption and more.

With enhanced VM management, an enhanced event viewer, and numerous additional new competitive capabilities in Windows Admin Center, Windows Server 2022 enhances hybrid server management.In addition, this release brings significant enhancements to Windows containers, such as simplified network policy implementation, containerization tools for.NET applications, and smaller image sizes for faster downloads.

Win Server 2022 Standard Features:

• HTTPS and TLS 1.3 are enabled by default. TLS 1.0 and TLS 1.1 are disabled by default. TLS 1.2 is still there.
• AES-256-GCM and AES-256-CCM cryptographic suites are supported for Server Message Block (SMB) encryption and signing.
• DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is supported and enabled by default.
• Windows Server 2022 brings secured core servers with Secured Core boot protection, hardware root-of-trust, firmware protection and virtualization based security (VBS) for physical security. Secured-core servers build on technologies such as Windows Defender System Guard and Virtualization-based Security to minimize risk from firmware vulnerabilities and advanced malware.
• Supports SMB over QUIC capability for safer communications. It’s designed for VPN replacement and relies on UDP and TLS 1.3 protocols for faster and safer communication.
• Windows Server 2022 comes with Azure Arc to manage and govern on-prem servers within Azure.
