I have to pass password in the powershell script.

currently i am using CreditSSP and password storing in secure sting in the disk .

Is there any way to read password from schedule task configuration or SSO or windows authentication

Hi,

Password can be easily obtained from PSCredential object using
GetNetworkCredential method:

$PlainPassword = $Credentials.GetNetworkCredential().Password

For more details, please  go through the below two articles:
