Lab — Patterns
Pack DMZ segmentation, microservices security, and cloud reference patterns — architecture patterns file from $ARCH_LAB only.
Visual · t41_patterns_lab
Lab: architecture patterns pack. $ARCH_LAB only. Original Cyberlium.
Opening
Patterns pack merges DMZ to microservices to cloud reference — paperwork before SABSA literacy module.
Lessons 5-1–5-3 named DMZ segmentation, microservices security, and cloud reference patterns. This lab merges three sections into one $ARCH_LAB patterns artifact with M1 ethics, M2 defense, and M4 STRIDE cross-references. No employer diagram imports, live cloud exports, or attack cookbooks — defensive pattern paperwork only. Next: Quiz — Architecture Patterns.
1. Lab contract: architecture patterns pack
Create $HOME/cyberlium-lab/t41-m05-l04-patterns-lab.txt merging DMZ segmentation, microservices security, and cloud reference sections with $ARCH_LAB fictional org LAB-ARCH-001 and M1/M2/M4 cross-references.
Optional: link DMZ zones to trust boundaries from M4 by zone name.
Command guide
Try these commands — Lab contract: architecture patterns pack
═══ LINUX / macOS (Terminal Practice) ═══
Check system state and user context
Command — copy this
id whoami uname -a
Inspect network sockets listening for connections
Command — copy this
ss -tuln 2>/dev/null || netstat -tuln
Audit active processes
Command — copy this
ps aux | grep -v "\[" | head -15
═══ WINDOWS (POWERSHELL) ═══ Query user identity and system information
Command — copy this
whoami /all Get-ComputerInfo | Select-Object CsName, OsName, OsVersion
Primary tools to practice this lesson: grep, curl. Reference sites: OWASP Threat Modeling (https://cheatsheetseries.owasp.org/cheatsheets/Threat_Modeling_Cheat_Sheet.html); Microsoft SDL (https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/securityengineering/sdl/); NIST 800-160 (https://csrc.nist.gov/publications/detail/sp/800-160/vol-1/rev-1/final). Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Cross-check ethics
Grep for live ARNs, employer firewall exports, attack cookbook language — remove. Confirm all systems are $ARCH_LAB fictional placeholders.
Pattern examples stay defensive design — not offensive target maps.
3. Lock the proof
chmod 600 on the pack. Quiz next — then SABSA Layers Named.
Architecture patterns literacy feeds SABSA lessons in M6.
4. What you ship: architecture patterns pack for $ARCH_LAB
Merged DMZ, microservices, cloud sections. $ARCH_LAB named. NO attack cookbooks. chmod 600.
5. What you record before the next lesson
Date. Patterns pack path. $ARCH_LAB named. File t41-m05-l04-patterns-lab.txt chmod 600.
6. Wrong vs right: offensive playbooks vs YOUR threat models
Worked failure — same MSF word, opposite target. Right never needs a café Wi-Fi or classmate laptop.
Wrong
Include employer cloud export in pack. Skip microservices identity section.
Right
Write YOUR architecture patterns pack for $ARCH_LAB. chmod 600. Next: Quiz — Architecture Patterns.
Mission: freeze YOUR architecture patterns pack on disk
1) Merge M5 literacy sections. 2) Confirm zero live export or attack refs. 3) Link M1/M2/M4 cross-refs. 4) chmod 600.
