Cybersecurity student building proof through network labs, Windows Server practice, Linux basics, and hands-on technical support.
Work
A collection of labs and projects that reflect my hands-on experience in systems, security, and networking.
Hardened a Windows Server 2012 R2 domain environment using Group Policy, password policies, administrative account management, firewall controls, and Nmap validation.
Conducted a vulnerability assessment against a vulnerable web server environment using Nessus Essentials and reviewed findings, severity, CVSS score, and remediation guidance.
Configured MariaDB users, database permissions, and least-privilege access controls.
Configured HTTPS on Apache using OpenSSL self-signed certificates in a lab environment.
Designed and configured routed network topologies in Cisco Packet Tracer with IP addressing, routing, switching, interface verification, and ping testing.
Built and deployed a creative portfolio website for a graphic designer client.
