In this hands-on lab, you are responsible for creating a directory to be used as a shared resource by the `devops` team. You will create a new local group, a local user account, and update the new group membership. Next, you will create a new directory and configure the permissions and ownership so it can only be accessed and used by the team. The last step will be to validate access to the directory using the account of a user on the `devops` team.
