_________

Information Technology provides the opportunity to get closer to customers and respond to them rapidly, which can significantly enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of a company’s operations. Online technology enablers such as social media, mobile internet, cloud and ‘smart’ eCommerce are continually shaping our daily lives. But at the same time, as organizations leverage new technologies, new risks emerge, and information is under constant threat from attackers. Organizations must be prepared to combat against, manage and mitigate cyberattacks that can occur anytime, anywhere.
 
Therefore, companies thrive to put information security, data privacy and protection at the forefront of their agenda. EY has more than 20 years of experience in improving the information and cyber security posture of financial services and industry leaders all over the globe.
 
We are committed to help our clients achieve their business strategies by providing them with objective and independent assessments and advice.
 
Each academic year, we offer internships in our Cyber Security team, based in our Diegem offices for a duration of at least 10 weeks. Once you apply, we provide you with a list of example topics. We can easily update these internship topics to fit your needs or interests and any topic you propose that is within our line of expertise will be taken into account. In other words, if you have an out of the box idea we can help.
