Exciting News: I Landed My First Internship!
I’m thrilled to share some exciting news: I have officially secured my first internship! After seeking advice from the wonderful community over at r/cybersecurity, I am ready to embark on this new journey.
In about three weeks, as soon as my summer break kicks off, I will be signing my internship contract and a non-disclosure agreement (NDA). I’ll be collaborating on a web application project alongside another intern in quality assurance.
This internship is set to last for three months, and if I demonstrate the right skills, there is the potential for a part-time paid position afterward. The opportunity to grow my experience and gain practical knowledge in the field is incredibly motivating.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who took the time to respond to my original post; your support means the world to me! I appreciate all the congratulations and kind messages I’ve received, and the awards have been a delightful surprise.
Stay tuned for updates on my progress—I’m excited to take on this challenge!

Congratulations on securing your internship! That’s a fantastic achievement and a great stepping stone in your cybersecurity journey.
Regarding your upcoming contract signing, make sure to thoroughly review the NDA and any other agreements before signing. If you have any questions about the terms or need clarification on confidentiality obligations, don’t hesitate to consult with a legal professional or your mentor.
As you prepare to collaborate on your web application project, consider setting up a version control system like Git if you haven’t already. This will help manage your codebase effectively and facilitate collaboration with your fellow intern.
Also, keep your development environment secure by following best practices—use strong, unique passwords, enable two-factor authentication where possible, and ensure your tools are up to date.
Best of luck in your internship! Keep engaging with the community and sharing your progress. If you encounter any technical challenges or need guidance with specific tools or processes, feel free to reach out.
