vapt intern

About the Program

A structured, hands-on VAPT training program focused on developing foundational penetration testing skills, practical vulnerability analysis, and AI-assisted security workflow awareness. Participants will engage in authorized lab environments, technical assignments, and a practical security assessment project.

Key Responsibilities

• Perform in-scope reconnaissance and attack-surface mapping within authorized lab environments.
• Conduct web application security testing using OWASP WSTG principles and relevant OWASP Top 10 categories.
• Use tools such as Burp Suite Community Edition, Nmap, and browser developer tools for controlled security testing.
• Investigate potential vulnerabilities, validate findings, and distinguish confirmed issues from false positives.
• Understand common vulnerability classes, including injection, broken access control, authentication weaknesses, and security misconfigurations.
• Explore AI-assisted security workflows for test-case generation, technical research, and report drafting, while independently validating results.
• Document reproducible evidence, assess impact, and recommend practical remediation measures.
• Prepare a structured VAPT report and present project findings during the final assessment.

What You Will Build

• One practical web application security assessment project, including scope documentation, testing evidence, vulnerability findings, risk ratings, remediation recommendations, and a final report.

Learning Outcomes

• Foundational web application penetration testing methodology.
• Vulnerability validation and evidence collection.
• Responsible use of AI-assisted security tools.
• Professional vulnerability reporting and remediation communication.

Eligibility

• Students, fresh graduates, and aspiring cybersecurity professionals.
• Basic understanding of networking, HTTP, Linux, or web technologies is beneficial.
• Willingness to learn, document technical work, and follow testing authorization and scope restrictions.

Program Structure

• Duration: 4 weeks.
• Mode: Remote.
• Guided labs using your own computer or authorized online platforms.
• Weekly technical submissions and mentor feedback.
• Final project review and competency assessment.
• Completion certificate subject to published assessment criteria.

This is a paid practical training program, not a salaried job or a guarantee of employment.

Participants must use only authorized testing environments.

Personal computer and internet access are required.
