This project contains scripts that:

• Install and configure software with administrative privileges
• Modify system security settings (Windows Defender, Firewall, BitLocker)
• Handle SSH keys and authentication
• Configure network and system access

1. Review all scripts before execution
2. Run in a test environment first (VM recommended)
3. Backup your system before making changes
4. Verify checksums of downloaded files when possible
5. Use official package managers (winget, apt) when available

• Defense in depth: Multiple security layers (Defender, Malwarebytes, GlassWire, firewall)
• Least privilege: Scripts request only necessary permissions
• Audit logging: Enhanced Windows audit policies
• Encryption: BitLocker, Credential Guard, LSA Protection
• Network security: Firewall rules, SSH key-only authentication
• Vulnerability scanning: Snyk, Trivy, security linters

1. Administrative Privileges: Scripts require admin rights to modify system settings
2. Network Downloads: Scripts download software from the internet
3. Registry Modifications: System registry is modified for security hardening
4. Service Configuration: System services are modified (Windows Search, Superfetch, etc.)
5. Firewall Rules: Custom firewall rules are applied

• All downloads use official package managers when possible
• Registry changes are documented and reversible
• Service changes improve security posture
• Firewall rules follow security best practices
• Scripts include error handling and validation

Use at your own risk. These scripts modify system configurations and install software. While designed for security and best practices, any automation carries inherent risks. Always test in a non-production environment first.
