Establishing an activity plan with objectives related to the design and implementation of cybersecurity solutions and secure infrastructures. Working with security tools and technologies for network protection, vulnerability assessment, penetration testing, and incident response. Establishing methodologies for risk analysis, threat modeling, security auditing, and compliance assessment. Identifying, analyzing, and mitigating security vulnerabilities in software systems and network architectures. Implementing and testing security mechanisms, cryptographic solutions, and access control policies. Evaluating the effectiveness, resilience, and reliability of cybersecurity measures. Documenting the implemented solutions and preparing a final report reflecting the technical activities and results obtained. The activity during the internship will be supervised by the tutor from the company, who establishes the tasks to be carried out by the student. Complete information about the internship: https://info.uvt.ro/practica/ Problem analysis, dialogue The activity schedule is flexible and may vary depending on the institution where the master's student is placed (an IT company relevant to the master's program).

AI tools guidance

Students may carry out their internship/practice stage activities within the host company in accordance with that organization’s internal rules and policies, including those regarding the use of generative artificial intelligence tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude, etc.). In this respect, the policies of the host company where the internship/practice stage is conducted shall apply exclusively. However, for the preparation of the practice report, the use of generative artificial intelligence tools is not permitted, regardless of the purpose (e.g., paraphrasing, content completion, content generation, translation, structuring, etc.). The report must fully reflect the student’s own work and personal experience.
