What you'll do

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

  1. Document the current Remote Desktop exposure and then restrict remote administration to approved sources
  2. Apply host-level hardening actions that reduce attack surface while preserving required admin workflows
  3. 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.
