Traineeship Cybersecurity Consulant

ABOUT THE CHALLENGE

During your first year at Toreon, you will be trained to develop cybersecurity skills. We will help you develop your talent and transform you into a successful security consultant. You will have the opportunity to further develop your talents and decide after this year in which domain you want to specialize yourself. It is up to you to show this year that you are a born security specialist!

We will teach you how to improve the security of our clients’ businesses. Using your creative technical skills, you provide original solutions to problems they have (and don’t even know they have). Our clients will come to you for security advice whenever they make changes in the frameworks, network, system, or application architecture. You will be the one to assess the security risks of these changes and you define how the final solution should be built and which requirements it should fulfill.

We introduce you to the following topics (this is intended for both technical and economical graduates):

  • We will teach you how to become a good consultant to do research within GRC and analyze the information security issues and trends of the business to develop a technical discipline.
  • You will learn how to create security roadmaps for clients and you will evaluate the standard frameworks (ISO27001, GDPR, NIST, CIS20…) to develop recommendations for risk -and security gaps. In addition, you will learn how to conduct safety risk and compliance assessments.
  • You will advise our customers on the economics of cybercrime and investments in security as well as legal aspects that they should comply with.
  • We will increase the basic knowledge of Identity-, access-, vulnerability- and patch management and security in the software development lifecycle.
  • You will be able to guide customers with Cloud security (MS O365, MS Azure, AWS, …).
  • You will gain experience in security domains and standards such as Cryptography (incl. Key Life Cycle Management) and Public Key Infrastructure.
  • We give you the knowledge of risk management, security infrastructure, and operational security processes. We will involve you in business continuity plan (BCP) and disaster recovery plan (DRP) activities where you will guide security assessments.
  • You will also gain knowledge within ICS/ OT security assessments and assist customers in establishing or extending their ICS/OT security program.
  • We will help you expand your knowledge about application security, threat modeling, security code reviews, application security testing and communication skills, so you can advise our clients about network, system, and application architecture.
  • To verify the security levels of our clients’ networks and applications, we will show you how we do penetration testing. You can use your creative, technical skills and think of original ways to circumvent the protective measures. We teach you the different types of tests that can be performed, such as internal intrusion tests, external intrusion tests, SCADA intrusion tests, social engineering tests, application, and web application intrusion tests. After the pentester have drawn up their report, we will train you how to motivate the highly necessary security changes to the customer.
