Auditors and IT professionals work with large amounts of data, requiring the need for a variety of tools to help them obtain, review, analyze, and/or export this data. One of the most versatile (and free) tools for working with data is PowerShell®, which is included with the Windows OS. While designed as a systems administration tool, it also has powerful capabilities that auditors and IT professionals can use to greatly improve project outcomes and efficiency.
This one-day hands-on virtual workshop is designed for students who want to learn how to use PowerShell in performing audits or data analysis projects. The core skills in working with PowerShell to analyze data are learning how to load data into PowerShell, reformat/analyze it, and export it to one or more files. This workshop covers these core skills through lessons and hands-on exercises. PowerShell, while designed for systems administrators to automate their administration duties, has data handling and analysis capabilities that auditors and IT professionals can use in accomplishing their projects.
This workshop is an excellent opportunity for those who are new to PowerShell to learn about this powerful tool. It’s also a great opportunity for those familiar with PowerShell to refresh and practice their skills.
