GSEC › Windows Automation and Auditing
This GSEC domain covers auditing and automating Windows hosts with native tooling. Questions present realistic scenarios: verifying local group membership and scheduled tasks, enforcing PowerShell script signing, reading audit policy output, and enabling object access auditing on file shares. Expect command-level answers using PowerShell, auditpol, and Group Policy rather than third-party products.
