InfoSec Intern

CRISIL Limited- S&P Global Company
Mumbai
06.2024 - 07.2024

In my role within the Information Security domain, I actively contributed to various critical areas, including Incidence Management ,Data Loss Prevention, Vulnerability and API testing. My responsibilities encompassed incidence management, where I efficiently coordinated with Department SPOCs (Single Points of Contact) and Compliance to ensure swift resolution. Additionally, I developed my knowledge in the various ATT&CK techniques from MITRE to manage SIEM systems and to effectively implement them across company devices. The internship provided me with a platform to venture into various fields such as GRC, Proxy and WAF, Cyber Defense, Attack surface reduction etc. and get an idea from my seniors colleagues with hands on experience.

I gained an overall idea about the various domains and touched a few in-depth inspiring me to continue my path of learning.
