A Technical Deep Dive: How to Run PowerShell Commands on Remote Windows Systems

PowerShell is fast becoming a must-have skill as Microsoft makes it the focus of its management strategy for both Windows Server, Azure, and Azure Stack. And as if that wasn’t enough, PowerShell Remoting is enabled by default in Windows Server 2012 R2 and is the most secure way to manage Windows Server.

In this on-demand webinar, join Windows & IT Security Expert, Russell Smith for a technical deep dive into Windows PowerShell. Smith will explain how to configure custom PowerShell Remoting endpoints so that users can use PowerShell Remoting without needing administrative privileges on the target server. He will also show attendees how to enable HTTPS using a self-signed certificate.

At the end of the session you will be able to:

• Understand PowerShell Remoting security.
• Configure custom endpoints.
• Establish PowerShell Remoting sessions without using administrator credentials.
• Set up SSL using a self-signed certificate to manage servers in a workgroup.
