I had the pleasure of working for KPMG Australia’s Government Cyber team as a paid intern in my Master of Computing<\/a> degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the four-month internship, worked on a wide range of projects, for both clients and for KPMG’s internal cyber security team. It was a great pleasure to deliver these projects and provide real value to clients and the organisation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In one project, I conducted a cyber security posture assessment against the Australian Cyber Security Centre’s Information Security Manual<\/a> (ISM). In Australia, the ISM is used to assess and protect systems and data, with an aim of identifying and reducing cyber risk. In this project, I helped develop documentation and policies for the provider to help mitigate the risks identified during the assessment phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was also tasked with operationalising cyber threat intelligence for KPMG’s internal cyber security team. As part of this project, I integrated a new source of cyber threats into KPMG’s Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) tool. To demonstrate my work, I was asked to develop a poster and pitch video, which you can find in my blog<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
