I implemented proper table headers, captions, and scope attributes to ensure the table was screen-reader friendly and easy to navigate.<br><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> accessibility, semantic HTML, WordPress block editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>View Project \u2192<\/strong> <em>(<a href=\"https:\/\/xbrandonfordx-afvsn.wordpress.com\/accessible-table\/\">Accessible Table<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Responsive Web Design (RWD) Analysis<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In this assignment, I analyzed a fully responsive website and explained how its layout adapts to mobile, tablet, and desktop screens. I learned how media queries, flexible images, and mobile-first design are used to enhance user experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> RWD concepts, media queries, layout analysis, UX evaluation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>View Project \u2192<\/strong> <em>(<a href=\"https:\/\/orang3bobportfolio.wordpress.com\/responsive-web-design-rwd-analysis\/\">Click Here<\/a>)<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Home Cybersecurity Lab<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1536\" src=\"http:\/\/localhost:8080\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited.jpeg?w=1024\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-39\" srcset=\"https:\/\/orang3bob.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited.jpeg 2048w, https:\/\/orang3bob.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/orang3bob.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/orang3bob.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/orang3bob.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/img_0007edited-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I built a multi-monitor workstation where I run virtual machines, experiment with networking tools, and practice cybersecurity concepts. I use systems such as Pop!_OS, Windows, and Kali Linux to explore networking, defensive tools, and ethical hacking labs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> virtualization, Linux, networking, cybersecurity fundamentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Android Rooting &amp; System Modification<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve spent years learning how Android systems work internally \u2014 rooting, customizing firmware, and debugging devices. These projects taught me a lot about filesystems, secure boot processes, and risk management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> Android internals, firmware flashing, troubleshooting, system recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Networking &amp; Home Infrastructure<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I designed and configured a secure home network, experimenting with routers, VLANs, remote access, Pi-hole DNS filtering, and network monitoring tools. This hands-on experience supports my formal networking coursework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> subnetting, routing, DNS, DHCP, network security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>IoT &amp; Camera Experimentation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>I\u2019ve explored IP cameras, custom firmware, local-only setups, and integration with home-lab tools. This allowed me to learn about device vulnerabilities, local web servers, and network-based configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Skills demonstrated:<\/strong> IoT security, protocols, device configuration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These projects are the foundation of my technical experience and I enjoy learning new things from each one and coming closer to my long-term cybersecurity goals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Even before taking college classes, I&#8217;ve always learned best by doing.
