Networking
TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, subnetting, routing concepts, ports, NAT, Wi‑Fi, VPNs, troubleshooting, and packet-level thinking.
↗I’m Arazm — a cybersecurity student and hands-on IT problem-solver who learns by building labs, breaking things safely, troubleshooting real systems, and understanding why technology behaves the way it does.
My strongest learning happens when I can touch the system myself. I’m interested in the layer underneath the button — packet flow, routing, permissions, services, virtualization, hardware behavior, and how attackers or failures can abuse weak design.
At work I troubleshoot Windows and macOS systems, hardware, operating systems, malware, data issues, and weird failures that don’t come with a clean textbook answer.
Outside of work I build labs, run Linux, experiment with VMs and servers, practice Python, and keep pushing deeper into networking and cybersecurity.
Completed — hardware, software, operating systems, troubleshooting, support.
Completed — IT service management fundamentals and structured service thinking.
Completed — routing, switching, ports, DNS, DHCP, subnetting, wireless, cloud, and network security.
In progress — studying core security concepts and reinforcing them through hands-on labs.
TCP/IP, DNS, DHCP, VLANs, subnetting, routing concepts, ports, NAT, Wi‑Fi, VPNs, troubleshooting, and packet-level thinking.
↗Windows, macOS, Linux, operating-system deployment, driver issues, BIOS/UEFI, storage, hardware diagnostics, and system recovery.
↗Malware remediation, endpoint hardening, authentication concepts, PKI, access control, segmentation, attack fundamentals, and safe lab practice.
↗CachyOS, KDE Plasma, Hyprland, Kali Linux, terminal workflows, package management, SSH, file permissions, networking, and VM environments.
↗Proxmox, VMware Fusion, virtual machines, Ubuntu Server, resource allocation, network setup, remote access, and home-lab experimentation.
↗Learning through small interactive programs, input validation, loops, branching logic, scripts, and turning ideas into working mini-projects.
↗I learned how a hypervisor divides CPU, memory, storage, and networking between virtual machines—and how Proxmox bridges connect those machines to the rest of the network.
Building the Ubuntu server taught me to work through SSH, manage services, read logs, configure the firewall, and troubleshoot from the network layer up instead of guessing.
Virtualization // Linux // SSH // Services // Networking
I learned how the Java runtime, PaperMC configuration, server process, and operating system work together to provide one application service.
I also gained a practical understanding of listening ports, UFW rules, NAT, port forwarding, remote access, and why exposing only the required port reduces risk.

I learned to separate symptoms from root causes by checking hardware health, startup behavior, operating-system integrity, malware indicators, and data condition in a repeatable order.
Real repair work strengthened my understanding of endpoint security, recovery options, backups, risk communication, and how to explain a technical failure clearly to the person affected by it.
