As Cigital engages with clients in the application of our software security improvement methodologies, the Software Security Intern joins in the execution and delivery of planned project deliverables and milestones that assist clients in learning, understanding, and applying Cigital’s secure software development methodologies.

The Intern continuously learns and expands his/her technical competence. Our Interns learn to make themselves and their team indispensable advisors to our customers: they assist in building the relationships that help create and identify follow-on assignments.
