The Enable-BitLocker cmdlet is available in Powershell to encrypt drives. The command is fairly straight forward once we figure out how to do a few things. In the following we’ll use -mountPoint to define that it’s the default C: drive that we’re encrypting, followed by -EncryptionMethod as an Aes128 or an Aes256 and then who can unlock, in this case, the CharlesEdge short name on the Krypted domain, then we’ll prompt (that can be removed) and define a -pin of 2345 to unlock the recovery key and finally drop the key off at a -RecoveryKeyPath. Seems like a lot but it’s not and there are ways to do a password instead of a key but since the target location should be write only we don’t want to put too much of a barrier up for the script in f: that, let’s say, might pick it up and pop it into a database or device management tool:

Enable-BitLocker -MountPoint "C:" -EncryptionMethod Aes256 -AdAccountOrGroup "Krypted\CharlesEdge" -AdAccountOrGroupProtector -Confirm -Pin 2345 -...

System and Network Extensions are fairly easy programmatically. However, there is some nuance around building them. Much of this is in getting the correct entitlements – but also a little in troubleshooting.

To see (or set) those entitlements, look at the .entitlements file located in the root of an Xcode Project. That will be a plist with a few entries. In this one, we’ll see com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension so we’re working on a network extension.

com.apple.security.app-sandbox

com.apple.security.application-groups

$(TeamIdentifierPrefix)com.krypted.firewall

com.apple.developer.networking.networkextension

content-filter-provider

To add one, go to the General screen for the project, and locate the section for Frameworks, Libraries, and Embedded Content.

The things are always changing. I write less and less how-to things because as the rate of innovation skyrockets (another way to say changes that are sometimes good and sometimes bad) – the second I hit save the article seems out of date, or technical debt.
