## 🗣️ Introduction 

This repository documents the **Born2BeRoot** project, a system administration challenge that involves creating and configuring a secure virtual machine with no graphical interface.  

The goal of the project is to understand and implement essential **Linux server security practices** and to configure the system according to specific guidelines.  

## 🧬 Project Structure 

The project is centered around configuring a **virtual machine** (using VirtualBox or UTM), securing a Linux environment, and managing system operations.  

Key topics covered in the project include **system partitioning**, **user password policies**, **firewall configuration**, **SSH security**, and **automated tasks with Cron**.
