# Welcome to DenDeck *A personal cybersecurity notebook exploring security, IT, and all things tech* --- ## About This Site **DenDeck** is my public-facing cybersecurity lab and digital garden — a space to document the technical journey I'm on through hands-on labs, writeups, certifications, and reflections. It all started in my private Obsidian vault. I just cleaned it up and hit publish. --- ## Why DenDeck? I spend most of my time in Obsidian. Instead of rewriting content for blog posts or reports, I decided to build directly from the notes I was already taking — raw, honest, and constantly evolving. This site allows me to: - Share lab environments and attack simulations - Publish walkthroughs with real configurations, commands, and output - Reflect on the process of learning — both the breakthroughs and setbacks - Dive into IAM, cloud security, red teaming, and system design --- ## What You'll Find - ✅ **Projects** like *HollowRoot*, simulating insider threats in hybrid environments - 🧩 **Labs** from my homelab and internships - 📘 **Certification notes** (ISC2 CC, Azure, IAM, etc.) - ☁️ **Deep-dives** into identity, cloud, and enterprise security - 🧠 **Reflections** on learning, doubt, and personal growth in tech --- ## Before You Dive In - This is a learning space — not production guidance. - Some environments are intentionally vulnerable to reflect real-world issues. - All misconfigurations, oversights, and opinions are my own. ---
