BLUF: Learn Cloud using systems engineering approach and hack cloud with LLM.
Abstract
 • Challenge: Cloud ecosystems are large and complex.
 • Approach: Apply a systems engineering lifecycle: needs → requirements → architecture/design → implementation → integration → verification/operations.
 • Scope: Azure-focused examples with provider comparisons.
 • Use Cases: From home-lab to small-business rollouts; examine cost, scalability, and security tradeoffs.
 • Hands-On: PwnedLabs lab for web-app/cloud attack paths, hardening, and validation under the shared responsibility model.
 • LLM Integration: Use Codex-like assistants to accelerate recon, produce playbooks/tests, and summarize findings
 • Takeaway: A practical, repeatable framework to understand cloud as a systems engineer and leverage LLMs to speed security testing and automation.
