What are the implications of disabling powershell

Post by CaptainOhMyCaptain »

We got a request from security to disable powershell across the enterprise. Obviously, there are ways to secure powershell like, forcing execution policy, requiring local admin rights to launch, required signed scripts etc.

But what would be the consequences of disabling powershell for all PCs or Users outside of IT?

PowerShell is a required program in Windows. It cannot be disabled without causing problems for the system.
