INTERN OBJECTIVES
We are looking for a Security Researcher Intern to work on some of the on-going investigations being carried out to enhance product security. As attackers are continually inventing ways to attack mobile apps, we need to be agile in our security research, and cannot say exactly which attacks/defences would be the subjects of security research at the time of the internship. Furthermore, certain investigations would be more amenable for intern involvement than others. However, we will definitely have some security research work that would be very exciting, challenging and a learning opportunity for the suitable intern(s) who are up to the challenge.

- Have basic understanding of android or iOS development
- (good to have) knowledge about working with rooting/jailbreaking devices
- (good to have) knowledge about rooting/jailbreaking from the point of view of detection of these, hiding of root/jailbreaking, and detection of such hiding attempts
- Reverse engineering of mobile software (to better understand attacks, etc.)
SOFT SKILLS
- A strong self-starter and able to work with minimal supervision
- Work at detailed level while maintaining project perspective
- Critical thinking and problem-solving skills
- Team player with good interpersonal and communication skills in English
Responsibilities:
- Researching certain malware or types of attacks
