Securance Cyber helps organizations with penetration testing, red teaming, information security and certifications. As a junior ethical hacker, you will support both small and large security assessments and projects for a broad range of clients, from SMEs to larger companies and government organizations.
Together with experienced colleagues, you will assess web applications, APIs, infrastructures, cloud environments and internal networks for vulnerabilities. You will learn not only how to identify vulnerabilities, but also how attackers could exploit them and what impact they may have on an organization.
You will contribute to security reports and learn how to translate technical risks into practical recommendations for clients. Throughout your work, you will receive guidance and coaching to further develop your technical skills.
You will also stay up to date with new vulnerabilities, attack techniques and security trends. We encourage you to actively share knowledge with colleagues and pursue certifications and training opportunities.
