Security Engineer \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

During my second remote internship with GuidePoint Security I designed and built a Python program to fetch API data and write it to a Splunk-monitored directory, enabling automated ingestion. Moreover, I built a Tines workflow to automate threat intelligence tasks, including web scraping and AI-powered summarization of security articles. As I look to work in the federal space these projects will help me get into my dream role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This role allowed me to work with vendors and vendor tools. To better my skills in python and Tines. The Tines experience is helping me with projects I am working on for my Federal internship.<\/p>\n\n\n

Public Broadcasting Service – Remote, Internship \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 05\/2025 – 08\/2025<\/strong>
Vulnerability Management Analyst<\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When working at PBS I learned about different EDR solutions and how they affect system security. I applied CVSS 3.1 scoring and NIST Cybersecurity Framework to assess vulnerabilities and prioritize remediation based on risk management principles. Moreover, I managed devices through the vulnerability lifecycle making sure devices were patched and plans were created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This role really matter to me as I was able to apply a previous internship through COVA CCI this internship. I learned how to use EDR solutions and apply risk scores to different vulnerabilities. While I was going through logs I found a previously thought to be patched vulnerability and alerted key teams to patch and verify it. This internship it helped me land me the Federal internship at GuidePoint Security.<\/p>\n\n\n
