Careers
Launch your cybersecurity career here.
Real work, real mentorship, real impact. We train the next generation of Ohio's defenders — and help place them in great jobs.
More than an internship.
Four things that make working here different from a typical placement.
Real-world experience
You won't just shadow — you'll work on live engagements protecting Ohio nonprofits and small businesses. The work is real, and so is your impact.
Mentorship from practitioners
Our team has secured critical infrastructure at the Federal Reserve and beyond. You'll learn from people doing the work, not just teaching it.
Career placement support
Resume reviews, LinkedIn audits, professional references, and direct introductions to partner organizations hiring cybersecurity talent.
Mission-driven work
Every engagement helps an Ohio organization serve its community better. Your career grows alongside something that matters.
How it works
The Cybersecurity Clinic.
We modeled our internship after teaching hospitals and law clinics — places where students learn by doing the real work, under expert supervision.
Hands-on engagements
Work alongside our team on actual client engagements — risk assessments, monitoring, training delivery, and incident response.
Structured learning
Regular skill-building sessions covering tools, frameworks, and the soft skills that make practitioners effective.
Cross-functional roles
Interns work across IT, Marketing, Administration, and Advocacy — not just technical roles. Cybersecurity needs all kinds of people.

Cybersecurity isn't just for technical folks. We value communication, reliability, and a genuine desire to help Ohio organizations — alongside the skills you bring.
IT & Security
Aspiring SOC analysts, security engineers, and threat hunters. Curiosity matters more than years of experience.
Marketing
Help us reach the Ohio nonprofits and SMBs that need protection most. Content, social, design, communications.

Operations, project coordination, and client engagement work. The backbone of every engagement we run.
