Are you a tech-savvy graduate in the UAE looking for more than just a "support" role? We are looking for a Business IT & Cybersecurity Intern who wants to bridge the gap between business software operations and security architecture.

- Data & Automation: Learn to script simple automations (Python/PowerShell) to replace manual business tasks and generate actionable IT reports for management.
2. Cybersecurity & Defense (50%)
- Threat Hunting: Monitor live dashboards for suspicious activity using industry-standard tools (SIEM, EDR).
- Incident Response: Shadow the security team during live incidents to understand containment and remediation strategies.
- Vulnerability Management: Assist in running vulnerability scans and patching systems before attackers can exploit them.
- User Awareness: Help design and launch "Phishing Simulation" campaigns to train staff on security best practices.
Why Join Us?
