Security Engineering Intern

Certifications include ISO 27001 and SOC 2 Type II, and we hold partner status with Microsoft, Cisco and VMware. Large rollouts are routine here, such as imaging 12,000 laptops for a state agency over one summer. Tickets live in ConnectWise and everyone logs time to the quarter hour.

The program:

Front Range Computer Services is hiring a Security Engineering Intern for Summer 2027. We are preparing for ISO 27001 and SOC 2 audits, and the intern will help collect evidence and update policies.

What you'll do:

• Collect evidence for ISO 27001 and SOC 2 audit controls.
• Test our own web apps for OWASP Top 10 issues using Burp Suite, within the agreed scope.
• Run authenticated vulnerability scans with Nessus or OpenVAS on approved assets.
• Update security policies and runbooks in Confluence.
• Monitor dependency alerts from Dependabot and Snyk.
• Check AWS and Google Workspace settings against CIS benchmarks.
• Triage phishing emails reported by staff and update block lists.
