Windows

This first Windows project I worked on in ITAS is focused on deploying an antivirus from your Domain Controller (DC), comparing/trying other antiviruses, and explaining how to prevent Ransomeware.


This Assignment we did Windows clustering with FreeNAS iSCSI as the shared storage and a Primary and Secondary server.


This Assignment I worked with IIS (Internet Information Services), which hosts websites, I made 4 websites with different specifications, and also installed a network monitoring program.


The last Assignment we worked on was deploying & configuring Microsoft Exchange server 2013
