What is JEA?
Documentation: Microsoft Learn
Just Enough Administration limits what a session can do — test the core idea.
Overview
QUIZ
Core PowerShell · Question 11 of 12
Explanation
Just Enough Administration, a way to expose constrained administrative operations instead of broad rights.
Apply the reasoning
Just Enough Administration defines constrained PowerShell administrative endpoints. Role capabilities expose approved commands and parameters, while endpoint configuration controls which users can connect and the identity under which work runs.
Why the other choices fail
Giving every operator unrestricted local administrator rights defeats the purpose. JEA is not a module distribution format and is built on PowerShell remoting rather than being restricted to local use. Test the complete permitted operation, including any helper commands it can invoke. Audit the session and verify that unapproved operations fail as expected.
