What you'll do
In this lab, you will harden a JumpBox that is used for administrative access.

- Validate that authorized access works and unauthorized access is prevented
Note: Once you begin the lab, you will not be able to pause, save, or return to your lab. Please ensure that you have set aside enough time to complete the lab before you start.
