Hands-On Systems Infrastructure Labs

Building My Active Directory Home Lab

I'm currently building a Windows Server home lab to gain hands-on experience with Active Directory, DNS, DHCP, and Group Policy. This project helps me develop practical systems administration skills that I can apply in enterprise environments. environments.

Lab Environments

Enterprise-Grade Architectures

Active Directory Lab

Microsoft 365 Tenant

A self-built Windows Server environment running nested virtualization. I configure and test complex Group Policy Objects, active directory replication, secure DNS routing, and automated user provisioning scripts.

A fully operational cloud sandbox demonstrating secure hybrid identity synchronization. I manage conditional access policies, multi-factor authentication enforcement, and automated endpoint onboarding using Microsoft Intune policies.

Stress-Test & Document

Drafting comprehensive network topology diagrams and identifying critical security boundaries before provisioning virtual or physical hardware resources.

Provisioning virtual machines, configuring core directory services, and applying strict baseline security policies to minimize potential attack surfaces.

Simulating active hardware and software failures, resolving configuration drifts, and writing clear, reproducible systems documentation for future troubleshooting.
