I am wondering if anyone has any idea on how to encrypt passwords in a powercli script. I am creating a script that is checking for compliance and then alerting on non-compliant vms. The script has a requirement of running as a scheduled task every night with no interaction. I can do this by specifying the vc password. but, rightfully so, security is stating the password must be encrypted, or the script needs to be complied, it cannot be in clear text. does anyone have any ideas?
