    Interns in our Technology Cybersecurity practice have these primary responsibilities

    • Threat Hunting – We are focused on identifying whether an organization has had a breach or malicious activity in the past. Often this is done either proactively or as part of a transaction. For example, when a CIO oversees a new IT staff and integrates a new environment, they might want to see what that environment has gone through in the past before connecting their systems.
    • Incident Response / Forensics – We determine if a company was breached; or if we know they are breached, we want to do analysis of workstations and servers to identify what happened.
    • Cybersecurity Advisory for Private Equity (CAPE) – We help Private Equity clients protect their investments by providing cybersecurity subject matter expertise in Microsoft 365 security hardening, infrastructure security best practices, and recommendations to prevent ransomware, data exfiltration, impersonation attacks, and business email compromise.
