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.

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?
