With that few lines, I want to thank all people, especially my family and friends who supported me while writing the book. Most of them didn’t see me for a long time because I was spending most of my spare time for preparing the next chapter or testing new features which I wanted to mention within the book. I also want to thank the guys from Microsoft and the coauthors Jan-Henrik and Oliver who support with reviewing and clearing some open questions and misunderstandings. Hopefully you as reader enjoy the reading the book as much as I writing it. Jan-Henrik Damaschke is an IT Consultant for Security, Network, and Infrastructure from Germany.
