Cybersecurity & Ethical Hacking

Intern remotely for up to 350 hours in organizations or start-ups around Europe

This remote internship is the perfect opportunity to gain international experience working on researching methods for securing data & navigation control communications between unmanned areal, sea and land vehicles. Drones of all sorts are infiltrating our everyday lives and there is a growing need to prevent a 3rd party to control the device or allow it to access to the data acquired by the on board sensors. If you are seeking on working for a dynamic environment and develop an international professional network, then this remote internship program is designed for you. The work will contribute to the development of advanced cybersecurity systems for detecting security weaknesses throughout the communication path and collaboratively develop methods to fortify the system’s encryption.

William Marsala: In the meeting with my coordinator for my virtual internship in cyber security, we laid out everything for me to accomplish. We had multiple weekly meetings and remained connected throughout, sending messages when online meetings were not practical. My role as a virtual cyber security intern had a focus on encryption and helping an organization to secure data, which is vital for every organization in our modern world. I found it interesting to conduct research on ROUV’s and learn more about them and how they function in the world of cyber security. Everything during the remote internship went as planned and I definitely gained more experience in conducting research and presenting my findings to others. I also learned more about the coding language Python and received more hands-on experience with it. My favorite take-away from my remote internship was overcoming all the challenges that were put in front of me with hard work and dedication. I feel more empowered in cybersecurity work now because I know I can now actually do work that is required of me when I get a job. I am majoring in cybersecurity and homeland security and before this internship, I was slightly apprehensive about how different school work would be from real-world work. However, this internship allowed me to get the experience I needed to understand how real-world assignments work.
