Data Loss Prevention Powershell

Hi Team,

I am using Powershell V5.1 Exchange Online Module to connect to Data Loss Prevention and create a DLP Policy.

To connect to DLP policy we must connect Connect-IPPSession session and access the security and compliance resources. and then access the DLP resources using New-DLPCompliancePolicy command and o trigger the required operations like Create, Update, remove, etc.

The Challange:

Connect-IPPSession - We are not able to find any way to connect using the certificate (Client ID & Secret/Certificate). It only supports User Principles ( Connect-IPPSSession -UserPrincipalName -ConnectionUri) which means we have to hard code Username and Password somewhere in the configuration settings. This is potentially a risk and not recommended.

Can you please help us with any other alternatives?

Thanks
Aniruddha

There's no alternative currently, only the Exchange Online module supports certificate-based auth, the SCC one does not. Neither there is support for performing these operations via the Graph API.
