Customer Internship Programme

To do this, we need to stay ahead of the latest threats and continuously improve our tooling, procedures, and processes. We work in collaboration with our software and systems engineering teams to support security throughout the development lifecycle. We also build proactive monitoring and responses to security events.

Your placement will be in one of our security functions, ranging from security operations to vulnerability management, security testing, or monitoring and capability. You'll have the opportunity to work on incident response, security platforms, cyber assurance and much more. You'll also contribute to a global cyber defence effort by evaluating, securing systems, and responding to incidents.

A successful internship with us can guarantee your place on our Technology Cyber Security Graduate Programme when you graduate - before you've even started your final year of study.

We're looking for interns who want to be part of a multi-functional, diverse and global team. While it's not essential you have a degree in computer science or a Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) subject, you must be able to demonstrate your technical ability and a passion for cyber security. This is assessed during the application process.
