Join us as a Summer Trainee and gain hands-on experience in vulnerability management by performing authenticated and unauthenticated security scans. Under the guidance of experienced colleagues, you will use tools such as Qualys to identify security weaknesses and understand how they impact systems.

These practical activities will help you analyze scan results, prioritize vulnerabilities using CVSS scores, and explore remediation methods such as patching, strengthening your understanding of real-world cybersecurity operations.

Duration: 4h/day

Period: July-August

Submission deadline: May, 6th
