Hi, I’m Patrik Weichert 👋

– an IT security student with a passion for automation, penetration testing, and local lab environments.
I use this site to document my hands-on learning, share guides, and explore how AI can support cybersecurity workflows.
I believe in learning by building, and I spend most of my time experimenting with Proxmox, pfSense, Kali Linux, Docker, Juice Shop, Caido, and tools like Ollama for local AI-driven analysis and automation.

Why I Built This Site

I created WeichertLabs as a personal knowledge base, public portfolio, and a way to give back to the community.
Every guide here is something I’ve actually done – often as part of my lab setup or current exams.
I want others to be able to follow along, learn something, or even copy my setup if it helps.
