Output BitLocker recovery password

February 16, 2024 Views: 4739

The script adds a BitLocker recovery password of a computer on which it is executed to the Execution Log. When the script runs, the Execution Log is displayed to users.

To execute the script, you can, for example, create a custom command to display recovery passwords to users. Since recovery information is stored in computer objects in AD, you need to create a custom command executed on Computer objects.

To add the script to a custom command, use the Run a program or PowerShell script action.

PowerShell
# Search parameters
$searcher = $Context.TargetObject
$searcher.Criteria = New-AdmCriteria -Type "msFVE-RecoveryInformation"
$searcher.SearchScope = "ADS_SCOPE_SUBTREE"
$searcher.SetPropertiesToLoad(@("msFVE-RecoveryPassword", "name"))

try
{
    # Execute search
    $searchResultIterator = $searcher.ExecuteSearch()
    $searchResults = $searchResultIterator.FetchAll()
    
    if ($searchResults.Count -eq 0)
    {
        # No BitLocker recovery information found under the current computer object
        $Context.LogMessage("This computer doesn't store its BitLocker recovery information in AD", 
            "Information") # TODO: modify me
        return
    }
    
    foreach ($searchResult in $searchResults)
    {
        $name = $searchResult.Properties["name"].Value
        $recoveryPassword = $searchResult.Properties["msFVE-RecoveryPassword"].Value
        
        $Context.LogMessage("Recovery information entry: " + $name, "Information")
        $Context.LogMessage("Recovery password: " + $recoveryPassword, "Information")
    }
}
finally
{
    # Release resources used by the search
    $searchResultIterator.Dispose()
}

Hi Adaxes
Thanks for this script. Could we get one that pulls the information from Azure instead of the local AD?

Hello Alexander,

Unfortunately, we do not have such a script.
