A personal Microsoft 365 lab planned around the chriswait.ing domain, providing a safe environment to build, test and document modern workplace administration skills.

Planned Areas

  • Custom domain setup and Exchange Online configuration testing
  • Entra ID users, groups and administrative roles
  • Intune enrolment, configuration profiles and compliance policies
  • Conditional Access and Microsoft Defender for Business
  • Windows Autopilot testing and deployment documentation
  • SharePoint and Teams administration exercises

Purpose

The lab will allow features and policy changes to be tested away from production environments, while creating practical documentation that supports continued development in Microsoft 365 and endpoint management.

Status

Planned. The next phase is tenant setup and custom domain configuration, followed by structured Intune and security testing.
