Sharquille Andrew · Homelab & Security

I build small networks and write down what they teach me.

I’m Sharquille. This site is my reading room. What I build on my own hardware ends up here as write-ups I’m not embarrassed to share.

None of this is a tutorial copied off a search page. I broke these projects myself, then wrote the notes so I wouldn’t have to learn the same lesson twice.

Selected work

Things I have built, broken, and written down.

Homelab Infrastructure as Code

Disposable lab VMs on Proxmox, provisioned by Terraform and configured by Ansible.

2026 · Terraform · Ansible · Proxmox VE · Debian

Egress-Controlled OSINT Lab on EVE-NG Pro

An isolated EVE-NG Pro lab where every outbound path is deliberate, logged, and evidenced.

2026 · EVE-NG Pro · nftables · TShark · Linux

Homelab Control Plane

The managed core of my homelab, segmented so lab experiments cannot take management down with them.

2026 · Proxmox VE · Network segmentation · EVE-NG · Documentation

Iron Harbor

A local-first course platform I author, teaching network security automation through evidence-gated checkpoints.

2026 · Hugo · Python · Ansible · Rego · Terraform

Right now

What's on the desk.

I’m studying for Security+ while I rebuild the homelab with Terraform and Ansible. The OSINT lab is written up. The control plane is catching up. Iron Harbor, my course platform, still moves one evidence-gated checkpoint at a time.

The notes

Everything above started as one of these.

Windows and macOS notes are coming soon.
