Ubuntu Workshop – Overview

Overview

This workshop covers the path from Linux and server fundamentals to platform operations, automation, hardening, monitoring and incident response.

The focus is on:

  • Ubuntu LTS, interim releases, Ubuntu Pro and support lifecycle
  • shell, filesystem, users, groups, sudo and processes
  • APT, dpkg, Snap and package sources
  • systemd, journald, timers and service operations
  • Netplan, DNS, UFW, SSH, storage, LVM and backups
  • cloud-init, baselines, patch management, monitoring and performance
  • AppArmor, auditd, AIDE, USG, CIS and incident response

Working Mode

  • Do not use production hosts, secrets or customer data in labs.
  • Examples write only below work/ and do not change system configuration.
  • Real system changes require change window, backup and rollback.
  • Ubuntu Pro, USG, FIPS and compliance features are documented instead of assumed.
