Self scheduling cleanup job for MEM kiosk machines

Leave a comment

Normally I’d recommend using the Unified Write Filter in Windows 10 to keep Kiosk machines in a semi-decent state.

For a customer that did not have this luxury, I wrote a tiny self-scheduling PowerShell script that will run as SYSTEM and clean up any of the specified folders in any of the user profiles on the machine.

This example can be used for many purposes to drop a script and maintain a scheduled task. Redeploying it will overwrite the dropped script and scheduled task as per the new config.

Grouping devices in MDATP based on registered users

Leave a comment

Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection seems to be becoming the defacto leader in the A/V industry, at least when Windows is concerned, but other OS’es seem to be following quickly 🙂

At one of my international customers, many different locations and departments exist and we’d like to group devices in MDATP based on their primary user so we can assigned different administrators automatically, and apply different web filtering policies.

MDATP has the following options available for grouping:

These membership rules don’t say anything about the user, and the machine domains are all cloud native (no hybrid joins). So we need to use Tags to gain flexible targeting in MDATP.

The following PowerShell script can be scheduled as an Azure Runbook to automatically tag all your MDATP devices based on the ‘Company’ attribute of the device’s primary user. It could also be modified easily to e.g. parse a user’s group membership or UPN’s domain.

https://gitlab.com/Lieben/assortedFunctions/-/blob/master/set-MDATPCustomTags.ps1

If you have a lot of devices, it may take a while for the first run (beyond Azure Automation limits), in that case run it locally first and then schedule it.

OnedriveMapper 4.04 with auto reconnect

14 Comments

Version 4.04 OnedriveMapper now automatically reconnects drives (of any type) when the cookie expires. No more ‘broken’ mappings! The script is smart enough to detect if its just a connectivity issue (= do nothing) or an actual drive issue.

All improvements since 4.00:

  1. Auto Remap (automatically reconnect disconnected drives)
  2. Block the IE firstrun wizard properly
  3. Bugfix: properly handle existing shortcuts instead of throwing an error
  4. Increase Converged Drive (single mapping with sub-mappings) reliability
  5. Better cleanup of existing mappings
  6. Always force the ‘keep me signed in’ option
  7. Support for root-level mappings

Get meta data such as the default domain of foreign Azure tenants

Leave a comment

For an Azure Managed Application Marketplace scenario, I needed to get information about the user logon domains and the company name of any tenants that purchased our Managed Application through the Azure Marketplace.

Azure Marketplace only has a CRM and a CRUD connection, these don’t send more than some basic name/email/company name and subscription ID’s, and thus the CRM and CRUD operations are hard to match up against one another and to really know who you’re dealing with.

With the following PS snippets, you can get all information from all tenants that have a link with you through Azure Lighthouse / Azure Marketplace:

(Invoke-RestMethod -Method GET -Uri "https://management.azure.com/tenants?api-version=2020-01-01&`$includeAllTenantCategories=true" -UseBasicParsing -Headers @{"Authorization" = "Bearer $azureToken"}).Value

You’ll of course need a bearer token for management.azure.com and I recommend using this snippet to get tenant ID’s from the subscriptions that use your marketplace offers. The output is in JSON and looks like this for Microsoft’s home tenant:

The ‘tenantCategory’ property will have a value of Home if you have an active account in that tenant (as a guest user for example). If lighthouse / CSP is the only authorization, it will say “ProjectedBy”. Both is also possible (tenantCategory is not a json array though, it is ‘seperated’ by a comma).

Get tenant ID using Azure Subscription ID

1 Comment

For a customer use case in an Azure Marketplace Managed Application scenario, I needed the ability to translate the (customers’) Azure Subscription ID (which is known to the publishing tenant) to a tenant ID. Using Get-AzSubscription, Lighthouse subscriptions don’t show the true tenant ID of the other tenant, but only show your own tenant ID.

The following PS function can retrieve the tenant ID for you (without authentication):

function get-tenantIdFromSubscriptionID($subId){
    $response = try {(Invoke-WebRequest -UseBasicParsing -Uri "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/$($subId)?api-version=2015-01-01" -ErrorAction Stop).BaseResponse} catch { $_.Exception.Response } 
    $stringHeader = $response.Headers.ToString()
    return($stringHeader.SubString($stringHeader.IndexOf("login.windows.net")+18,36))
}
