API Reference — Implementing Privileged Access Workstation

Libraries Used

  • subprocess: Execute PowerShell cmdlets for device hardening, group membership, software inventory
  • json: Parse PowerShell ConvertTo-Json output

CLI Interface

python agent.py harden
python agent.py admins
python agent.py software
python agent.py network
python agent.py full

Core Functions

check_device_hardening() — Audit 7 PAW hardening controls

Checks: Credential Guard, VBS status, Secure Boot, BitLocker, AppLocker, Windows Firewall profiles, UAC level via registry.

check_local_admin_group() — JIT access audit

Enumerates local Administrators group via Get-LocalGroupMember. Flags unexpected members not matching known admin accounts.

check_installed_software() — Software allowlist enforcement

Queries installed software from registry. Checks against blocked list: browsers (Chrome, Firefox), personal apps (Spotify, Steam, Slack, Zoom, Dropbox).

check_network_restrictions() — Network isolation verification

Counts outbound firewall block rules. Tests general internet connectivity. PAW Tier 0 should block internet — only management endpoints allowed.

full_paw_audit() — Comprehensive compliance report
