Dec 23, 2024 – EntraFIDOFinder v0.0.14 is Out with New Features!

December 23, 2024 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

It’s the second to last Monday of the year, so figured I’d release a new version of the EntraFIDOFinder before the end of the year. Here are the main additions.

New Features:

  • Using -AllProperties now gives you all of the basic information for the key(s), but also gives you all of the data from the FIDO Alliance as well
  • AAGUID can now be piped in, whether it is 1 key or 100 keys, it will take it
  • AAGUID can now be imported from a .CSV, .TXT, or .XLSX
  • Using -DetailedProperties you can now gain access to any of the regular or FIDO Alliance properties to create your output
  • Added a GitHub Action to directly copy the FIDO Alliance data and merge it into the JSON data and update where necessary
  • Web Version: You can click on a key and get more information, then there is a button inside it which will show you all of the data in JSON

I did some other cleanup and prepping for some future updates, but what do you think? Any other features we should add? Are there fields not in the standard that you think should be?

Here are a couple sample outputs:

"50a45b0c-80e7-f944-bf29-f552bfa2e048", "973446ca-e21c-9a9b-99f5-9b985a67af0f" | Find-FIDOKey

Thank you for taking the time to read this and using EntraFIDOFinder. This started out as a quick side project that grew a lot faster than I thought it would. I’ve learned a lot building the backend to this and even some of the front end. I can’t believe it’s almost at 1.2k downloads! Thank you!

v0.0.13 EntraFIDOFinder is out

December 2, 2024 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

New Version of EntraFIDOFinder is out and i’ve added a better way to find out which version of FIDO they are using too. I’ve updated it for the PowerShell version and the webversion.

Enhancements

  • Filter by FIDO version from FIDO Alliance (PowerShell and Web Version)
    • Using ValidateSet for versions (“FIDO U2F”, “FIDO 2.0”, “FIDO 2.1”, “FIDO 2.1 PRE”)
  • Added -AllProperties
    • Default to terminal shows basic fields, but added -AllProperties that I’ll add more of the useful fields first
  • Show-FIDODbVersion now shows you your current version and if it needs to be updated

I did notice that there is a difference for AAGUID 30b5035e-d297-4ff7-b00b-addc96ba6a98 where on Microsofts website it says it should be compatible with BLE, but mine script isn’t seeing that. I’m going to check this week and see why its doing that. Hopefully it is a quick fix.
UPDATE: Same day Microsoft updated their webpage to show that it isn’t compatible with BLE, making mine correct again.

Let me know your thoughts and what you would like to see and or not see…

First Snowfall of the Season

November 22, 2024 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

First snowfall in NY! Tell me about the first time PowerShell just clicked… what was that moment?

Mine was adding new users to AD(it’s usually AD or Exchange, right?) and remembering the standard fields needed to be filled out with their default values. Also when we had multiple new hires it was so time consuming clicking through the GUI. That’s when I learned how to create an AD user with a CSV. It was life changing and realized I needed to do more of this.

Now I have a module that is meant to create Microsoft 365 test environments but can be used in production to create users, groups, and much more from an excel file without even having excel on the computer! You can check out the module below.

We all start somewhere and love hearing that light bulb moment that triggers the snowball effect!

October 14, 2024 – Tomorrow is MFA Enforcement day and we have our first FIDO2 key update

October 14, 2024 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

Today is the last day before Phase 1 of MFA Enforcement of Microsoft portals being turned on. This includes break glass accounts as well, so make sure you have your FIDO keys, Certs, or a dedicated computer with Windows Hello for Business setup.

You can learn more of the details at Microsoft Learn – https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity/authentication/concept-mandatory-multifactor-authentication

If you want to see what accounts will be affected, check out Daniel Bradley’s great blog at https://ourcloudnetwork.com/how-to-assess-the-impact-of-mfa-enforcement-in-azure/

This past Saturday we had our first update to the FIDO2 key database. The OneSpan DIGIPASS FX1 BIO now has been approved for NFC. It looks like it was updated later on Friday as the page shows last updated on the 11th, but when I had checked that morning there wasn’t an update.

Also, I’ve updated the module to show the change in database as well as when you check which version of the database you have it automatically tells you if it is outdated instead of needing to then run the -NewVersion parameter.

Added Cmdlet Get-FIDODbLog which will show you the database merge log so you don’t have to go to the web to see it and will have it right in your terminal.

Hope this helps with your security journey, and if there is anyway I can help, please feel free to reach out.

EntraFIDOFinder Update

October 9, 2024 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

October 15, is less than a week away for the MFA requirement on certain 365 Apps. Please make sure you are all set by then. Make sure to go through all your accounts, especially those old ones that you rarely ever touch, and see if you still need it or what is the best way to protect it now. For some you will be able to delete and others you will need something such as a cert, FIDO2 key, or Windows Hello for Business. For those that will need a FIDO2 key, I’ve pulled from Microsoft Learn the current Attestation capable FIDO2 keys that are compatible with Entra. The database may say that it was last updated September 30, 2024, but I reviewed it today(Oct 9th) and the list still hasn’t changed. Once they do update it, I’ll update mine as well as show the changes.

With that said, I’ve now created a function called Show-FIDODbVersion that will show you what your current version is, and if you use Show-FIDODbVersion -NewestVersion, it will show you the newest version out. Would you rather me, show the difference as soon as you run Show-FIDODbVersion if there is or do you want them seperate?

Also working on automating the update process so that it can be checked daily with minimal intervention.

Are there any other features you’d like to see? I’m going to be adding at least vendor links and I’ve been trying to find pricing, but more than a handful of them do not even show pricing and not sure how valuable it will be if only a few of the vendors have pricing. How critical is cost to you?

I hope EntraFIDOFinder has been useful for you, and I can’t believe it has over 100 downloads already. I wasn’t even going to publish this, but figured there was someone else out there that didn’t want to just look at a static website and scroll through, so that is why I created the module and the interactive webpage.

Enjoy your day and get secure!

Module Monday July 31, 2023

July 31, 2023 by ClaytonT Leave a Comment

Well, here it is!  Module Monday, but this one is a module I’ve been working on for a bit and figured it’s time to put it out to the community for others to enjoy and improve. Have you had to test PowerShell scripts on your 365 tenant and really didn’t want to use your production environment, but wanted to keep the close as possible for testing accuracy? Then you’ll want 365AutomatedLab in your tool chest. It can also be used to add multiple users to an environment from an excel sheet or add multiple groups to a user per their title from an excel sheet. Hope you check it out and leave some feedback! So much I want to do with it and super excited about this project that I feel can help so many!

I’ll be doing some blog posts and video tutorials in the near future. Any preferences?

Thanks to Andrew Pla for the extra push 😆
