About this tag
Packet signing is a security feature in the Server Message Block (SMB) protocol that helps prevent man-in-the-middle attacks by digitally signing SMB packets. On Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2, enabling SMB packet signing can cause SMB commands to run serially instead of in parallel when an application accesses multiple remote computers simultaneously. This performance issue is addressed by a Microsoft hotfix (KB2689311) that improves command concurrency while maintaining the security benefits of packet signing. The tag covers discussions and solutions related to this specific behavior and its resolution.
