About the internship

Project timeline : Feb - June 2026 (flexible start and end dates)

You will work closely with our development and operations teams to identify which aspects of the software should be tested and under which conditions.

Some of the topics on the table include:

• Guidance on which software to use for security testing

  • Focusing on open-source solutions, with commercial options considered when they provide clear benefits

• Implement an initial scan for one of our products

  • Developing an extensible Proof of Concept

  • Ensuring the solution can be scheduled

• Setting up reporting & alerting on test results

The ideal outcome is a brief market overview of available tools for DAST, pentesting, and other forms of security testing, along with a proof-of-concept implementation using the preferred solution. This implementation should support scheduled periodic checks and be easily maintained by our development and operations teams.
