I am Patrick Bays, a cybersecurity student at Old Dominion University. I currently work as a Network Engineer at ANVIL Systems Group, but I previously worked on ODU&#8217;s Norfolk campus as a consultant for their systems group. I have a CompTIA Security+ certification, and I&#8217;m currently working on my CCNA. My primary knowledge is in Kerberos and containerization, but I am also proficient in Microsoft Active Directory and managing various MDM services such as Mosyle. Now, past the business part, I&#8217;ve been playing saxophone for 14 years, I&#8217;m super passionate about music, and I love racing in autocross events around Tidewater in my Mazda. I also love messing around with various electronics, like making a Raspberry Pi server to control my 3d printer or soldering parts together to make embedded systems to assist with daily tasks.\u00a0I&#8217;m currently working on a full virtualization stack for my new homelab now that I&#8217;ve moved out with my boyfriend!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-237\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1.jpg 800w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/pwb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/41009\/2026\/04\/fghfghdfgh-1-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello, welcome to my site!
