About Program
The Cloud Security Intern Internship Program is designed for final-year VTU students who want to build skills in cloud computing, security operations, network controls, IAM, and compliance. Students begin with cloud fundamentals, AWS services, networking, and secure architecture design before advancing into identity management, monitoring, encryption, and incident response. Through practical labs and real-time security scenarios, students learn how to secure cloud infrastructure and handle threats. The internship includes project-based learning, mentorship, and placement preparation. By the end of the program, students will have deployed secure cloud systems, implemented IAM rules, automated threat alerts, and built a security portfolio suitable for cloud and cybersecurity roles.
