 # App-only authentication for unattended scripts in Exchange Online PowerShell and Security & Compliance PowerShell
 
-Auditing and reporting scenarios in Microsoft 365 often involve unattended scripts in Exchange Online PowerShell and Security & Compliance PowerShell. In the past, unattended sign in required you to store the username and password in a local file or in a secret vault that's accessed at run-time. But, as we all know, storing user credentials locally is not a good security practice.

 ## How does it work?
 
-The Exchange Online PowerShell module uses the Active Directory Authentication Library to fetch an app-only token using the application Id, tenant Id (organization), and certificate thumbprint. The application object provisioned inside Azure AD has a Directory Role assigned to it, which is returned in the access token. The session's role based access control (RBAC) is configured using the directory role information that's available in the token.
