Cybersecurity Intern

Evolution Cloud Services (EVOCS)

9d • $16 - $24 • Remote

About The Position

EVOCS is looking for a cybersecurity intern to work alongside our security team on real work. Not shadowing, not busywork. You will be given actual tasks, with oversight, and the expectation that you learn fast and take on more. This is a long-term internship, not a summer placement, and it is built as a path to a full-time role. If you do well, we want to hire you. You will work directly with the Director of Cybersecurity, who will supervise your work and be the person you learn from.

Requirements

• Foundational security knowledge from coursework, certifications (Security+ or similar), or self-study. No professional experience required.
• Comfortable across Windows, macOS, and Linux, and willing to dig into unfamiliar tools without being walked through them.
• Some scripting ability (PowerShell, Python, or equivalent) or clear evidence you can pick it up quickly.
• Clear written communication. A lot of this work is taking something messy and explaining it plainly.
• Accuracy and follow-through. Much of this work is only useful if it is right and finished.
• Curiosity, and the willingness to ask a question rather than guess. Guessing quietly is the one habit that causes problems here.
• Available 30+ hours per week on an ongoing basis, based in the United States and authorized to work without sponsorship.

Nice To Haves

• Any exposure to Microsoft 365, Entra, and Azure.
• Familiarity with security or compliance frameworks (NIST CSF, CIS Benchmarks, ISO 27001, SOC 2).
• Experience with a SIEM, EDR, or vulnerability scanner, including free and open source ones.
• An interest in how AI is being applied to security work, and to building things generally.

Responsibilities

• Configuring, hardening, testing, and documenting across the Microsoft Cloud and Endpoint security stack (Azure, Microsoft 365, Entra, Defender, Intune, Purview). Reviewing settings against benchmarks and finding what is misconfigured.
• Staying on top of new advisories, CVEs, and attack techniques, working out which ones actually matter to our environment and our clients, and writing short, clear briefs on what you find.
• Writing scripts and small tools that remove manual work: pulling data, generating reports, collecting evidence, checking configurations.
• Control evidence collection, access reviews, vendor reviews, asset inventory reconciliation, and keeping documentation and ownership mapping current.
• Helping prepare material behind our client security work: research, data organization, and first-pass analysis.
• Evaluating, standing up, testing, and documenting security tools, and helping decide whether they are worth keeping.

Benefits

• Long-term paid internship
• Path to full-time role
• Direct mentorship from the Director of Cybersecurity
• Hands-on experience across the Microsoft security stack, compliance operations, and live client security work
• Real projects you can point to, including anything you build
