Cybersecurity firms are often hired to perform risk assessments for technology companies. Over the course of multiple weeks, you’ll work closely with a team to deliver a risk assessment for a B2B company looking to secure their data and their practices.

For this Team Sprint you will either be assigned to a red team or a blue team for your cybersecurity consulting firm. The Red Team’s job entails playing the role of cyberattacker to help your client, GymPass, identify security risks within their tools and processes. The Blue Team’s goal will be to develop recommendations for mitigating vulnerabilities and risks.

In this learning experience, you’ll receive guidance from working professionals currently working in the field of Cybersecurity. They’ll share their knowledge, expertise, and experience to help you understand how the challenge is approached in the real world. You’ll also connect with and learn from peer learners all seeking to explore new careers together.

You will learn to:

• Interview a client and translate their answers into a GRC tool
• Determine vulnerabilities after reviewing a client’s documentation and processes
• Negotiate a risk assessment strategy that balances your client’s needs and your firms liability
• Document and share your findings with a non-technical audience
