    Microsoft announces native Sysmon support for Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025

    Initial Disclosure

    Microsoft announced that Sysmon will be integrated natively into Windows 11 and Windows Server 2025 next year, removing the need to deploy the standalone Sysinternals tool on each device. The built-in feature is expected to preserve custom configuration files, advanced event filtering, and Windows Event Log monitoring, while Windows 11 users and admins will be able to install it through Optional features and receive updates through Windows Update. Microsoft also said it will publish comprehensive Sysmon documentation next year and add enterprise management features and AI-powered threat detection capabilities.
