PR Summary
This adds a new rule:
AvoidUsingAllowUnencryptedAuthentication.This rule searches for use of the
-AllowUnencryptedAuthenticationswitch. This mainly serves to flag use withInvoke-WebRequestandInvoke-RestMethod, but also works for other cmdlets which may use the same parameter scheme.This parameter is directly warned against in MSDN as it isn't secure. It is risky and should only be used for compatibility with legacy systems. A
Warninghere should be sufficient to dissuade against this.PR Checklist
