Exciting News: My First Internship in Cybersecurity!

I am thrilled to share some fantastic news with my readers! Thanks to the extraordinary support and guidance from the r/cybersecurity community, I’ve successfully secured my very first internship contract.

In just about three weeks, as soon as my summer break begins, I will be diving into the world of cybersecurity. I’ll be signing the NDA and the internship contract, and I can’t wait to get started. My project will involve collaborating with a fellow intern on developing a web application, allowing me to apply what I’ve learned and grow my skills hands-on.

This internship is set to last for three months, and if I can demonstrate my abilities during this period, there’s a possibility of transitioning into a part-time role with financial compensation. That could be a great stepping stone in my career!

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who offered advice on my previous post. Your encouragement and insightful tips truly made a difference, and I appreciate each and every one of you.

A special shoutout to those who congratulated me and left such kind messages—your support means the world! Here’s to exciting new beginnings! <3

Stay tuned for updates on my journey in the cybersecurity field!
