This exercise designs NimbusDesk's network segmentation from Module 2's subnetting and firewall concepts: separating the public web tier into a DMZ, isolating the internal admin panel, and placing the database in the most restricted segment with the narrowest possible set of firewall rules permitting only the traffic each tier genuinely needs.

💪 Think of it like fitness: injuries follow a predictable chain — poor warm-up, then form breakdown, then compensation, then the actual tear — and a good physio catalogs where each patient's chain can be interrupted early, rather than only treating the tear afterward. MITRE ATT&CK is the sports-medicine literature of intrusions: a public catalog of every observed breakdown pattern, organized by the stage it serves — how attackers get in, how they escalate, how they extract. Coaches worldwide describe an athlete's risk in that shared vocabulary. This reveals ATT&CK's real value: intrusions become a sequence you can interrupt at stage two, not a disaster you discover at stage five.
