PowerShell is the new kid on the block. With Windows Server 2008 coming out in early 2008, PowerShell will take off likea rocket ship. With all of the attention that PowerShell is getting, everyone is hoping that it comes with security alreadybuilt-in. Well, the worry is over. PowerShell provides security directly out of the box, with default security features. Thefact that the scripts are set to have a restricted execution policy is fantastic. Even if you have created a .PS1 file, that scriptbeing associated with Notepad is nice default security. Even if you can get to the PowerShell interface, the fact that thepath to the script must be typed in adds value. Beyond the defaults, being able to set the execution policy and controlPowerShell through Group Policy gives centralized control over PowerShell security.
