01

Overview

An identity and access management setup built around Windows Server — from account provisioning to enforced multi-factor authentication.

02

Problem

Weak identity controls are one of the most common ways real environments get compromised — shared credentials, no MFA, and loose group policy.

03

Solution

Active Directory was structured around clear organizational units and group policy, DNS was configured to support the domain reliably, and UserLock was added on top for session control and MFA enforcement.

05

Technologies

Windows Server, Active Directory, DNS, Group Policy Objects, FortiGate, UserLock, MFA.

06

Challenges

Balancing usability with security — tight GPOs and MFA enforcement had to be configured without locking out legitimate workflows.

07

Result

A Windows Server environment with structured identity management, enforced group policy, and MFA-backed access control.
