powershell verification

The powershell verification tag covers methods for using PowerShell to confirm system security configurations, particularly Secure Boot certificate updates. Content focuses on Microsoft's transition from 2011 Secure Boot trust anchors to the Windows UEFI CA 2023 family. Users can verify this staged rollout with built-in PowerShell commands, checking Event Viewer logs like TPM-WMI Event ID 1801. These informational entries indicate compatibility checks, not failures. The tag emphasizes safe, non-destructive verification of firmware certificate progression without third-party tools. Recurring themes include Secure Boot, certificate chains, staged updates, and using PowerShell for enterprise IT auditing.
