About the Role:
The Intelligence Analyst Internship is fully remote and requires no travel. Your work location is the city/town/province you will be working from remotely. Interns are also invited to work out of the CrowdStrike office located closest to their remote location.
What You'll Do:
The team you are applying to – the Applied Research Cell (ARC) — lives at the intersection between software engineering, malware analysis, and cyber threat intelligence connecting the two worlds of reverse engineering and forward engineering. To that extent we are working closely with different teams from the wider mission with the end-goal of tracking the most advanced threat actors and ultimately stopping breaches.
ARC Interns will be assisted during the development of projects with well-defined deadlines. The goal is to approach the following topics:
- Conducting and evaluating open source research on cyber threats.
- Learning cyber security concepts and threat actor Tactics, Techniques and Procedures (TTPs).
- Conducting research on predetermined malware families and learning about various triage techniques.
- Developing tools and integrating them to high-scale malware processing pipelines.
The internship will be scoped in a project to be completed during 12 weeks.
What You'll Need:
- Currently completing your penultimate year of University (2027 graduate) and be working towards a BA or BS / MA or MS degree in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Math, Information Security, Information Assurance, Information Security Management, Intelligence Studies, Cybersecurity, Cybersecurity Policy, or a related field.
- An eagerness to learn through hands-on experience and collaborative projects specific to your internship field.
- Although CrowdStrike is a primarily remote company, collaboration is intrinsic to the success of our mission. Therefore, the strongest applicants will be those who can communicate effectively and frequently, and work well with fellow interns and employees.
- Experience in malware research.
- Experience with programming (Python, C or similar languages).
Bonus Points:
- Having an investigative mindset and desire to stop evil.
- Self motivated and actively seeking opportunities for growth.
- Desire to rapidly increase skill set.
- Crave new and innovative work.
This is a 12 week internship commencing on Monday 1st June and completing on Friday 21st August.
