====== 🏠 Home: Public Cloud & Documentation Engine ======

Welcome to the documentation of the **Cloud-Based Knowledge Base**.

This project focuses on deploying a secure and globally accessible DokuWiki instance using modern cloud infrastructure and advanced security layers.

===== 🏗️ Infrastructure Overview =====
Unlike the local lab, this environment is hosted in the public cloud to ensure high availability and accessibility:
  * **Compute Provider:** Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI).
  * **Operating System:** Ubuntu Server.
  * **Edge Security:** Cloudflare (DNS Proxying & Web Application Firewall).
  * **SSL/TLS:** Automated encryption via Certbot (Let's Encrypt).

===== 🛡️ Security Architecture =====
To protect the data and the server, multiple layers of security have been implemented:
  * **Network Isolation:** Strict Security Lists in OCI and internal iptables configuration.
  * **Brute-Force Protection:** **Fail2Ban** monitoring SSH and web access logs.
  * **Privacy:** Cloudflare Proxy mode to mask the origin server's IP address.

===== 🚀 Project Goals =====
  - Create a central, encrypted place for technical documentation.
  - Automate server maintenance and backup processes.
  - Implement a production-grade security setup for public-facing servers.
