Before you start...

We need you! These exercises are built and maintained in collaboration with contributors like yourself. If you find any bugs or misspellings, please contribute and/or report them.

📝 Instructions

In this project:

• You will learn how to install and start an Apache server, which handles 30% of today's internet traffic and is among the top four most used servers in the world.
• You will get familiar with deploying a WordPress website, which is used by 42% of today's websites.

This setup is called LAMP, and it is the most popular stack on the internet today. You will be using this during several other cybersecurity projects.

With this work, you will understand how a web server works from the inside, and you will have a service to which you can do monitoring and security tests to reinforce the skills you will acquire throughout the course.
