Powershell script to get encryption password details

[darren.flatman]

Want to create a Powershell script that can get the details for the encryption passwords
The idea is for the script to run every 15 mins and to raise an alert if the password is changed
So need to be able to get the last modified details
I found a command for credentials but it does not include the encryption password

Hi Darren

Egor mentioned the Event IDs in this post. You can query the event logs with PowerShell.

Have a look at this topic.
Another user wrote a script to get the encryption password age from the Event Logs.

Thanks

Feature request:
Regarding the Get-VBREncryptionKey, the only way to get a a result back from this cmdlet is to query on Description.
I would like to ask that it is possible to query on Id, and ModificationDataUtc aswell.

Noted. You can also use native powershell filtering capabilities:

Code: Select all

Get-VBREncryptionKey | where {$_.ModificationDataUtc -like $date}

Thanks!
