Using Powershell to Investigate Azure Ad User Risks
By: Christian Hojsager
In this post, I will explain how you can use the PowerShell SDK for Microsoft Graph to investigate Risky Users in your Azure Active Directory. I will also show you how to use PowerShell to connect directly to the Microsoft Graph and query the data from there. Being able to query for riskDetections, risky users, and sign-ins, allows you to automate alerts or actions whenever a user gets flagged in your risk policy.

Reporting SharePoint Online External Users with PowerShell
By: Tony Redmond
A SharePoint external user is someone who doesn't have an account in your tenant. Because of the influence of Teams, most SharePoint Online external users are guest accounts, created when external people join the membership of Microsoft 365 Groups (teams). If the organization uses the SharePoint Online integration with Azure AD B2B collaboration, SharePoint also creates guest accounts when people share files or folders with external people.

Installing software via Azure DevOps & PowerShell on Windows servers
By: u/Robba078
The idea of this pipeline to manage the software dependencies (.exe's, .msi) via an azure-package feed. This way all uploads, updates to version are traceable. The pipeline will download this package during its build, and publish it as an artefact (named patch) for the deployment stages where the software will copied to and installed on the servers For every environment provided in parameters Environments, the software will be attempted to be installed on the servers via PowerShell noscripts. Azure DevOps is the orchestrator, but the PoSh noscript does the heavy lifting.

Working with VirusTotal from PowerShell
By: Przemyslaw Klys
Virus Total is an excellent service. It's a single place where hundreds of antivirus engines can verify if the file, URL, domain name, or IP Address is trusted or not. Of course, it's not a silver bullet, but it brings tremendous value, and I often verify files I download before executing. Since I release a lot of new or updated PowerShell modules on a weekly/monthly basis, I thought it would be great to send newly released versions straight to Virus Total so I can have them checked before anyone executes them. I also hope to prevent false positives from some antivirus vendors that may tag my modules as malware because they haven't seen the DLL or PowerShell module in this form before. I've seen it happen to DBATools, so why not try and push my modules before users even use them?
