The New-ADAuthenticationPolicy creates an authentication policy object in Active Directory® Domain Services.
Commonly used attributes of the object can be specified by the parameters of this cmdlet. To set attributes for the object that are not represented by the parameters of this cmdlet, specify the OtherAttributes parameter.
You can use the pipeline operator and the Import-Csv cmdlet to pass a list for bulk creation of objects in the directory. You can also specify a template object by using the Instance parameter to create objects from a template.

Specifies a user account that has permission to perform the task. The default is the current user. Type a user name, such as User01 or Domain01\User01, or enter a PSCredential object, such as one generated by the Get-Credential cmdlet.
By default, the cmdlet uses the credentials of the currently logged on user unless the cmdlet is run from an Active Directory Domain Services Windows PowerShell provider drive. If you run the cmdlet in a provider drive, the account associated with the drive is the default.
If you specify credentials that do not have permission to perform the task, the cmdlet returns an error.

This command creates an authentication policy object named AuthenticationPolicy01 and sets the TGT lifetime for a user account to 60 minutes. Because the Enforce parameter is not specified, the authentication policy created is in audit mode.
PS C:\> New-ADAuthenticationPolicy -Name "AuthenticationPolicy01" -UserTGTLifetimeMins 60
This command creates an authentication policy named AuthenticationPolicy02 and enforces it by specifying the Enforce parameter.
PS C:\> New-ADAuthenticationPolicy -Name "AuthenticationPolicy02" -Enforce
This command creates an authentication policy named TestAuthenticationPolicy. The UserAllowedToAuthenticationFrom parameter specifies the devices from which users are allowed to authenticate by an SDDL string in the file named someFile.txt
PS C:\> New-ADAuthenticationPolicy -Name "TestAuthenticationPolicy" -UserAllowedToAuthenticateFrom (Get-Acl .\someFile.txt).sddl
