I don;t have any other answer then the others. Looks like someone played a
trick on you or your AD has been compromised.

However, the line I'd like to respond to is "We periodically reboot our
server (once a month) ". Does this mean that you do not deploy security
patches at a regular interval? If you do, that would be your reboot
moment...

Good point. That sentence bugged me too but for the wrong reason which
Erik caught.

I would NEVER reboot my DCs except for the patches which was what
bugged me when I read it.

But, since patches practically always (these days) require reboots more
often than once per month, sometimes once per week, sometimes not
(theorectically) for much longer.
