Automating tasks and supporting systems remotely are part of modern IT workflows. In this episode, we begin with scripting—specifically .bat and PowerShell scripts—and explain how they’re used to automate routine tasks like file transfers, user creation, or system reboots. Then we introduce remote access tools like R D P and S S H, showing how they allow technicians to manage systems without being physically present.

We also explore the risks involved with remote access—such as unsecured ports, weak passwords, or man-in-the-middle attacks—and how to mitigate them through encryption, access control, and logging. CompTIA expects you to identify secure and insecure remote management practices, especially in troubleshooting and policy scenarios. Brought to you by BareMetalCyber.com.
