Internship Program
Real security work. Not simulated fluff.
Our internship is designed to simulate real security work as closely as possible. You do the work — with guidance from practitioners who've done it in the field. No fake tasks, no copy-paste labs, no certificate-only programs.
What You'll Actually Do
No watch-and-learn. No fake labs. Real tasks guided by practitioners.
Vulnerability Assessment
Conduct real vulnerability assessments on lab environments that mirror enterprise setups.
Web Application Testing
Identify and exploit OWASP Top 10 and beyond in controlled real-world scenarios.
Report Writing
Document findings the way real pentesters do — clear, actionable, client-ready.
AD Lab Projects
Work within Active Directory environments to understand attack and detection paths.

Past & Current Batches
We publish honest outcomes — intern feedback alongside mentor reviews. No cherry-picking, no spin.
Q4 2025 Cyber Ledger delivers consistently high-quality sessions that are both informative and practically oriented. The regularity of the sessions, combined with effective doubt-clearing, makes complex red teaming concepts easy to understand. The content is highly relevant to real-world offensive security and has significantly improved my technical knowledge and practical skills.
The intern's research work showed a strong dependence on surface-level material, with limited evidence of independent understanding. During weekly demonstrations, they struggled to explain or defend their own submissions, revealing gaps in foundational clarity. Task execution frequently missed intended objectives and required repeated correction. Communication and attendance were inconsistent, including several missed sessions without prior notice.
Q4 2025 The internship at The Cyber Ledger was a genuinely hands-on and well-structured learning experience. I worked on real cybersecurity tasks like vulnerability assessment, web application testing, and security analysis, which closely reflected industry practices. The guidance was clear, supportive, and practical, encouraging independent thinking while still providing constructive feedback.
The intern completed assigned research but relied heavily on copied content rather than demonstrated comprehension. When asked to present or discuss their work during weekly reviews, they were unable to address basic questions related to their own material. Assigned tasks were not consistently executed as intended.
