interesting to provide to all users, who are already familiar with it, a method to export all keys, certs and secrets stored in it once via Powershell.

only on a 'custom' script. Considering how many variables are involved: requirements, environments, the overall experience of the team that will manage that piece of software, and all efforts to develop, test, and support the solution over time.

the MS Defender Powershell module and wrote a helper function to scan on-demand a file using mpcmd.exe.

this is the case also for all wireless networks with (SSID and Passphrase) that our OS stores and use to connect automatically.

Anti-Virus runtime solution installed is working as expected.

options available to manage, protect and monitor endpoints. I was not surprised a few months ago when I needed to implement a monitoring check for Nagios that there was a dedicated PowerShell module that did exactly what I needed.

all the moving parts of our systems and applications and create a big picture of the health of the whole environment. Before going down the rabbit hole of complicated monitoring tools and techniques let's start with define a that monitoring can be subjective and on a case-by-case can be very basic or detailed and can let you choose a specific tool or strategy. There is no one-size-fits-all. This week I needed to implement a custom check to monitor the network load/usage on any Windows OS and instead of looking for a third-party tool and deploying maybe another agent on servers I wrote a Powershell script to perform this activity.

parallelising the processing/execution of some of the workflows. It generally means adding complexity and is not always the case that it will make necessary the whole process so much faster, but for long-running ones made of independent sub-tasks, it is probably a very effective strategy.

lot of articles around the trends of adoption of cloud services and all software that should facilitate the challenge of enabling in every country the same practices and processes of working remotely.

one popular article using PowerShell written 2 years ago was Text-To-Speach in 3 lines of code, so I've decided to play with sounds.
