In the previous chapter, we elaborated on PowerShell security, an increasingly important topic. You learned the pitfalls of security and the techniques attackers commonly use.
Just Enough Administration (JEA) is a great technology within PowerShell for delegating tasks that need a higher rights level or additional cmdlets. These can be provided via central JEA servers, controlling the connecting computers and users, and delegating rights based on a role-based model. You will see the benefits of using JEA throughout this chapter.
These are the topics we'll be covering in this chapter:
- JEA described on a technical level
- Session authoring
- Role capabilities
- Session configurations
- Deploying session configurations
- Use cases
