On November 7th I published a post about my new Powershell module Passphraser. I have been using
this module to test Plaster, Pester, psake, platyPS, Appveyor and ReadTheDocs. I have also been wanting to explore custom classes in Powershell, so I figured Passphraser would be the perfect platform. This allows me to get a passphrase as an object which I can manipulate further to my needs. I wrote a little bit about this in an update to my post on Passphraser, but here I'll dig deeper into the class itself.

At some point, most people will run into a problem that a basic PowerShell script is just too slow
to solve. This could be collecting data from lots of computers on your network or perhaps creating a ton of new users in Active Directory at once. These are both great examples of where using more processing power would get your code to run faster. Let's get into how to solve this using multithreading in PowerShell!

Recently, I've been working on trying to finish up a migration from Exchange Server 2010 to Office
365. There are potentially numerous mailboxes that aren't used and those won't be migrated to Office 365 because there's no sense in paying for licensing for them. How do you determine what mailboxes are in use?

Watching the Watcher with PowerShell

If you followed along with my recent articles about my PowerShell based backup system, you may
recall that I used a PowerShell scheduled job an an event subscriber to monitor for file changes in key folders that I want to back up. I created the scheduled task to run at Windows startup and so far it appears to be working just fine. However, I did catch one instance where the scheduled task stopped. I didn't find any reason, although I didn't dig too deeply either. I simply restarted the scheduled task. But it got me thinking that since I'm relying on this task to log new and changed files, I need to make sure it is watching. In other words, I need to watch the watcher. This is the approach I took.

Microsoft Graph provides access to a wide range of information belonging to you and your
organization. Currently PowerShell users do not have a unified experience for accessing all of Microsoft Graph. This session introduces our preview Microsoft Graph PowerShell module generated from Microsoft Graph metadata using the same technology the Azure team is using to build their management PowerShell modules. Come learn how you can quickly use this to do ad-hoc interrogation of Microsoft Graph data and also build scripts that can perform unattended processes on your organization's data.

I believe that remoting in PowerShell unfairly gets a bad rap in the security world and the truth is
that when done right; PowerShell remoting is equal to SSH. The problem is that Microsoft and Windows get a bad rap because most people assume Windows is not secure. I invite you to watch the video and take notes. If you have questions, please reach out to me via the comments here or via the contact information posted int he video. Also, you can more links on this website that discuss remoting in detail.
