# Sample deployment script for IT admins
$computers = Get-ADComputer -Filter *
foreach ($pc in $computers) {
    Invoke-Command -ComputerName $pc.Name -ScriptBlock {

}

Section 3: Compliance & Risk Management

Mitigation Strategies

✔ Document all activations
✔ Maintain purchase records for some legitimate licenses
