Challenge
Construct a multi-format data ingestion layer for system auditing
In this objective, you'll read the JSON configuration, import the server inventory, and query the staged logs so the rest of the report uses the same target settings and production list.
-
Challenge
Synthesize disparate data into a unified, actionable intelligence model
With the data in place, you'll loop the production servers, run a state-check against each log, join inventory and status into a PSCustomObject, and keep only the High Risk and Out of Compliance systems.

Challenge
Automate the production and distribution of a stakeholder-ready reporting asset
In this final objective, you'll turn an exception list into a color-coded HTML dashboard, write the new statuses back to the JSON file, and save the report with a time-stamped name.
