Primer on the MDI PowerShell module

The second chapter and the overall documentation for Defender for Identity provide you with instructions for setting up the necessary configurations by hand. Yet, this manual process may lead to mistakes, consume considerable time, and present challenges in managing within complicated, multi-domain settings.
