About the Role:The cybersecurity internship is an opportunity that introduces aspiring cybersecurity professionals to the day-to-day operations of security within the company. Interns are primarily exposed to frontline duties associated with cybersecurity practices, and are introduced to the processes of event assessment and escalation (when warranted) to senior members of the cybersecurity team. The internship is a fantastic opportunity to learn firsthand how cybersecurity controls are implemented, managed and enhanced across the business.
Working alongside one or more mentors, Interns perform data collection, ticket processing, analysis and remediation tasks. Interns also work with cybersecurity team members to understand architectural designs, best practices, and event and incident response (IR) obligations. Interns provide support to the security operations center (SOC), IR and security networking teams. To be effective, Interns must have a general understanding of cybersecurity principles and concepts, as well as solid practical hands-on experience with computers.
