📌 I am excited to share that I have successfully completed a month-long internship at the Defense Research and Development Organisation (DRDO). This incredible opportunity allowed me to immerse myself in the field of Android forensics and security, where I gained hands-on experience and advanced knowledge. During my internship, I performed a wide range of operations, including: 1. Android Forensics: Conducted in-depth analysis of Android devices to extract, recover, and analyze data. I learned various forensic techniques and tools to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the data. 2. Security Training: Participated in comprehensive training sessions focused on Android security. This included understanding the Android security architecture, identifying vulnerabilities, and implementing measures to safeguard against potential threats. 3. Plugin Execution: Worked on executing various forensic plugins to enhance data extraction and analysis processes. This involved integrating and testing plugins to ensure they functioned effectively within the forensic framework. 4. Interpretation and Analysis: Analyzed data retrieved from Android devices to interpret results accurately. This step was crucial in identifying patterns, understanding user behaviors, and uncovering potential security breaches. 5. Reporting and Documentation: Documented findings and created detailed reports on the forensic analysis and security assessments conducted during the internship. This helped in maintaining a comprehensive record of the work performed and the outcomes achieved. This internship has been a transformative experience, allowing me to apply theoretical knowledge in a practical setting and gain valuable insights into the field of security. I am grateful to DRDO for this opportunity and look forward to leveraging these skills in my future endeavors. #InternshipExperience #DRDO #AndroidForensics #SecurityTraining #ProfessionalGrowth

Title: Finding My Path: From Uncertainty to Passion I was an average student with no dreams to grab onto, floating through life without direction. One day, I found inspiration in the world of Computer Science, and it sparked a desire to pursue a B.Tech in CSE at a tier-3 college. Reality hit hard when I realized that the four years of my college degree barely aligned with the demands of today's job market. The curriculum seemed disconnected from real-world applications. Nevertheless, I accepted this reality and tried to follow the roadmaps suggested by friends and industry trends. To be honest, the journey was exhausting. I didn't fit into the suggested roadmap and felt completely lost. Then, in my final year, I stumbled upon cybersecurity as a career option. It was a revelation—I fell in love with the field. Unfortunately, it felt like I had wasted three crucial years discovering this passion. I immersed myself in numerous unpaid internships, hoping to gain practical experience. Yet, these opportunities often led to dead ends. Many firms promised growth but delivered little, leaving me with knowledge that seemed inapplicable in real-world scenarios. Now, at 22, I find myself with no clear plan, no job, and still searching for a dream. My journey highlights the gaps in today's education system and the disheartening practices of some internship firms that exploit aspiring professionals. Despite all this, I never gave up. I am still pushing forward, determined to live my dream and carve out a successful path in cybersecurity. Every setback is a lesson, and I am more committed than ever to turning my passion into a reality. #EducationReform #InternshipReality #StudentStruggles #FutureOfWork #DreamBig #Cybersecurity #DigitalForensic #Ethical_Hacker #CyberSec

Internship Update: New Horizons As my time in both Customer Zero and SOC rotations at Netskope come to a close, I am compelled to reflect on the knowledge acquired through these experiences. Engaging with Netskope at the foundational level within my customer zero rotation has significantly enhanced my understanding of its inner workings. I would like to thank Robert Butler and Stevan Pierce, as well as the entire customer zero team, for their invaluable guidance and mentorship. In the SOC, I have gained invaluable insights into the security challenges confronting the organization. Triaging and resolving issues firsthand has given me a unique perspective as I aspire to thrive in the realm of security. A shoutout and thanks to Jared Hawkins and Ally Frame for their mentorship and support throughout these past three weeks. I am excited for the transition to the Solutions Engineer phase of my internship and I am keen to further refine my business acumen and technical expertise by learning from established professionals and leaders in the field. Here's to the remainder of my internship journey at Netskope and the invaluable lessons ahead. #cybersecurity #internship #professionalgrowth

Why is there an information security talent gap? Current security leaders grew up on IT and networking and shifted into security roles after 10-20 years of great fundamentals development. The current generations are trying to come directly into security without those underlying experiences. That is a significant change in both time and content of education. It is thusly up to current leaders to take college grads and build the next generation through significant internship programs and we have, as an industry, failed to do this. We need to have an internship position ready for every sophomore in a cyber program today and transition them into full-time positions by the end of their undergrad. Next, we need them to lead the next group of students, as a function of their grad programs, so they can develop their leadership skills. They will really benefit from this 5-year "residency" program and this is half of how we solve the actual skills gap problem. Come listen to me discuss the other half of the solution, and how it involves AI, this Wednesday with top CISOs at The Millennium Alliance Assembly.
