What is the benefit of having Powershell v2 on my 2008R2 server core domain

#2. I've not tested this, but you will likely get access to the Active
Directory module so you can use PowerShell to administer AD locally.

You can also perform general management on the server core machine by
remoting into it with PowerShell

How secured is it to include Powershell v2.0 in the default server build.
Are there any issues that need to be aware off?

As far as I'm concerned, it is very secure by default. If you decide to
enable remoting, then you have opened up a HTTP and HTTPS port (TCP ports
5985 and 5986 respectively, if I remember correctly).
