  2. Typ Connect-EXOPSSession and press enter
  3. Wait a little bit for it to connect
  4. Use all the supported commands.

Connect-EXOPSSession

This magic command, will load to correct modules, and authenticate as the current user. Before you can access the shell you’ll be required to do MFA (if that is configured for your organisation). So this is completely secured by Microsoft.
