Welcome to my little corner of the internet! If you're here, you probably care about cybersecurity, automation, or DevOps — or you're just really lost (in which case, welcome anyway).

This blog is where I share the things I've learned while trying to make technology work better, faster, and more securely.

What You'll Find Here​

This isn't your typical "enterprise best practices" blog. This is where I document the real stuff — the configurations that actually work, the automations that save hours of repetitive work, and the security practices that don't require a PhD to implement.

Three core areas:

  • Cybersecurity — Creating desired states and making sure nobody can change them without your permission
  • Automation — Getting really good at something and then never doing it again
  • DevOps — Bringing developers and operations together through collaboration (and coffee)

Why This Blog Exists​

I got tired of finding outdated documentation, vague tutorials, and "solutions" that skip the important details. So I started documenting my own processes — step-by-step, tested, and actually useful.

If you've ever thought "there has to be a better way to do this," you're in the right place.

What's Coming​

I'll be sharing:

  • Guides for hands-on technical walkthroughs (like GPO targeting, PowerShell automation, etc.)
  • Blog posts about tools, projects, and lessons learned
  • SIEM queries and security detection rules
  • Automation scripts that make life easier

Everything here is tested in real environments. No theoretical fluff — just practical knowledge you can actually use.

Let's Connect​

Got questions? Found something useful? Want to share your own approach?

Thanks for stopping by. Let's make technology work better together.
