Mirko PetersHOST
The platform quietly handles the webhooks, the authentication, and the retries on your behalf.
Mirko PetersHOST
The code-first path is friendlier than it sounds as well, because Azure Functions supports languages people already know, including C-sharp, JavaScript, PowerShell, and Python.
Mirko PetersHOST
You're not forced to learn something exotic just to try it.
Mirko PetersHOST
Power Automate also sits inside a wider family that includes PowerApps, Dataverse, Dynamics 365, and Office 365.
speaker_6HOST
Exactly.
speaker_6HOST
They use native built-in system tools, things like PowerShell or Windows Management Instrumentation to move laterally across a network.
speaker_5HOST
So they're using the IT team's own tools against them?
speaker_6HOST
Spot on.

speaker_6HOST
Let's test the exact logic we just covered.
speaker_6HOST
Let's do it.
speaker_6HOST
For everyone listening, imagine your network's automated logging system flags a highly privileged service account executing a complex PowerShell script at 4 AM.
speaker_5HOST
OK, 4 AM.
Gerald AugerHOST
Multiple choice performance-based lab questions.
Gerald AugerHOST
You gotta be good at Linux, Wireshark, PowerShell.
Gerald AugerHOST
Oh, it doesn't sound bad.
Gerald AugerHOST
It doesn't sound bad.
DioGUEST
boot the program,
PeterHOST
Peter? The script says it's running in PowerShell, but I don't see it.
PeterHOST
Where did it go? Hold on.
PeterHOST
Where did I leave Game of Favorites? This is so confusing.
Alex HurtadoGUEST
So if you look at an attack and you try to filter out, if you could tell an attack from normal, and the way to do that is by filtering out what usually triggers on that behavior, but that's just benign.
Alex HurtadoGUEST
So if someone, let's say, Command-EXE or PowerShell is spawned by One of the many drivers that there are out there now, like there's like lists of hundreds and hundreds of RMMs or lolbins living off the land binaries that spawn PowerShell or that spawn Command-EXE.
Alex HurtadoGUEST
Many times advanced developers or just legitimate housekeeping operations do these things.
Alex HurtadoGUEST
So if you could say, okay, it's okay for this list of people to do this behavior or these applications like CrowdStrike and Jamf.
Tim PalmerHOST
Well, and it might even be closer to a month really, but it, it was, and that's the thing with doing it.
Tim PalmerHOST
So I went through Replit and through Replit, it's really nice because you can ask it questions and then, but I had to actually go into the PowerShell and code it and start copying and pasting codes and really understand what the JOS is.
Tim PalmerHOST
files are, the MPEG files, all these open notepad and have a bunch of parentheses and shit all over the place.
Tim PalmerHOST
I felt like I was in the matrix, man.
Chris TitusHOST
And during the middle of this, I'm using a Mac, and I'm not using Swift to write a Mac utility, which you probably should do if you do plan on just doing Mac, but The idea behind all of my stuff on this channel has always been, hey, just make something cool that people can use that will make their life better.
Chris TitusHOST
That's how the Windows Utility became the number one PowerShell project, I think, in the world, or at least in GitHub.
Chris TitusHOST
I don't know how you judge the popularity of a script, but...
Chris TitusHOST
This is pretty damn popular.
Chris TitusHOST
As far as GitHub goes, it has the most stars in any PowerShell project.
Chris TitusHOST
I started tracking how many downloads we got like about a year, year and a half ago, and we're almost to 10 million.
Chris TitusHOST
So a lot, and it's used a ton and mentioned by pretty much everybody these days, and I usually dedicate some time every week to it because I use Windows a lot.
Chris TitusHOST
And then the Linux utility, well, that's not PowerShell.
JasminHOST
But the thing is that what AI has given us is the ability to actually write the scripts as the scripts should be written.
JasminHOST
Yesterday I had a lecture on PowerShell.
JasminHOST
You know the usual, you need to create the script in this way, you need to check for things, you need to include the directive to actually enable the what-if and to enable the all the different other arguments that come automatically when you do the script the right way.
JasminHOST
So then you need to create a description, the synopsis, and so on and so on.
JasminHOST
And what I told the students is that they never should be creating any scripts anymore for PowerShell without using AI.
JasminHOST
And my rationale behind this is this.
JasminHOST
If you tell... for example, Opus, to create a script that lists all the users in the domain.

VedranHOST
Yes, exactly my point.
Robert CraneHOST
So managing, you know, Twitter, X posts, managing LinkedIn, all of that sort of stuff.
Robert CraneHOST
then i've been able to extend that to doing things like you know uh you know writing emails creating uh parts of the blog post helping me do the podcast from there i've extended it into connecting to the multiple tenants to give me information updates and reporting on all of those items i can ask ad hoc questions like give me a graph output of the number of failed logins i have to this tenant over time so i can see the password spray attacks happening I've created a bot that does PowerShell.
Robert CraneHOST
That's all it does.
Robert CraneHOST
It just knows everything about PowerShell, everything about my repos, and I can then delegate work to it.
Robert CraneHOST
So I can go to one of my tenants and say, oh, I see that there's an error or there's some sort of information.
Robert CraneHOST
Can you use the PowerShell bot to run a script to retrieve that information and give it back to me? So bot number one is handing off to bot number two to do something and getting the result back and presenting it to me.
Robert CraneHOST
So it's very much like a digital business environment, digital employees that I can delegate information to.
Robert CraneHOST
Now, from there, I've also extended the bots to be able to use the co-pilot AI experience as well.
Chris TitusHOST
I'm kind of worried about this as far as it coming through.
Chris TitusHOST
People that follow me, I will create workarounds and we will strip this out going forward, but the big worry here is future feature updates where this might get enabled, or Microsoft updates that might enable it as well so these are really big concerns coming through my suggestion if this really is something like hey I have to stay on Windows I think right now you should be looking at LTSC Enterprise Edition as you don't have to worry about this getting added to those versions of Windows, and those should have support up until 2032, so about another seven to six years, six to seven years, six, seven, sorry, I got teenagers, anyways, it's, yeah, that's just kind of where we're at with the agent iOS, the next topic of the day is the activation method, mass grave, many people have used it, In the past, you could just run one command through PowerShell.
Chris TitusHOST
It would activate your Windows using a method dubbed KMS38 and would do essentially an exploit using the key management service.
Chris TitusHOST
Now, this method has been officially patched by Microsoft, and I know the pirates out there are going, I can't believe they patched it.
