My experience at Protiviti was entirely positive because I was doing something that I enjoy, I was challenged and never stopped learning. I learned a lot about security consulting and what sort of projects I might be on in the future. At Protiviti I can go two routes in security: I can become a penetration tester ( what I ultimately want to do)…[Read more]

Looking at the data you presented and the general trend of AI applications, I think AI will keep advancing in general in the healthcare industry. While there are some cases that I can see them being extreme (making intuitive decisions), AI will use Machine Learning to become better at predicting, simulating, and executing a specific human…[Read more]

I think that autonomous driving is still far time away due to accidents like these. I think that self-driving trucks will be the first of the kind because of lesses restrictions they need on highways rather than driving in cities with a lot of pedestrians. With those gaining some traction and success, people can start believing AI to be able to…[Read more]

One of the things that I observed during my internship is that you need to continually learn and test things on your own. As one of my mentors said, being in the security field is not a 40 hour a week job. You always need to be reading about the tech industry and other complimentary industries to be up to speed with the current technology and…[Read more]

I think that you bring some very good points since AI at the moment is still human code that just contains a bunch of different decision trees and conditional statements. However, it’s also valuable to point out that Machine learning and Deep learning are still at this early stages of development which will minimize the errors that AI make as long…[Read more]

Seeing the AI alignment in an integrative way can help to understand the bigger problem and the solution that can solve it. Using AI to predict and simulate cybersecurity attacks will be a very important skill that AI’s will learn in the future. When creating this AI, the human needs to take into account a wide array of potential threats and to…[Read more]

The technical classes like MIS 3501, 3502, 2501, and 2502 in our MIS program helped me the most during my internship. Because I have a lot of outside curiosity, I was able to try out different things in the classroom which helped me to solidify the material learned during class even better. Using these technical skills I was able to understand…[Read more]

One of the things that I do is I plan my day ahead the night before. It takes only about 5-7 minutes but saves a lot of time the next day. Another thing that I do is write everything out in my reminders. While this may not be the greatest thing to improve one’s memory, it helps to minimize forgetfulness and reminds me of when I need to do a…[Read more]

Good explanation Dante. I don’t think AI is going anywhere. While currently, we don’t have true AI’s, its early predecessors are in development by companies like Google, Microsoft, and IBM. A true AI should be able to think on its own or have its own conscience. So far, our examples of IBM Watson are just a hunk of algorithms and decision trees,…[Read more]

Great explanation Noah. The PC market, in general, has been in decline and the only thing that’s from complete crumble is PC gaming. I don’t think Rasberry Pi poses any threat to PC market. I feel like it’s a separate market on its own that’s very niche. I think it’s a great learning tool for anyone to learn Linux and computer in general as it’s a…[Read more]

The most important skill during my internship was to be able to integrate knowledge. Whether it was previous knowledge learned from school or new information that I learned during the various projects and clients, I had to learn how to see how all the pieces fit. To become a successful security consultant, you need to have a good basis of basic…[Read more]

During my internship, one of the things that I had to figure out on my own is the environment in the Lab. I enjoyed doing my work there and learning more different technologies. The most difficult part was that everyone has a very advanced understanding of penetration testing and the people that were there. Most were IST majors in college which…[Read more]

Hello everyone,
I worked at Protiviti as a Security and Privacy intern in their Technology Consulting solution. During the internship, I worked on a variety of projects. My first project was a Cloud Risk Assessment that basically tried to ensure that the client adheres to the industry standards. My next few projects involved some Penetration…[Read more]

@prince-patel Sure thing. Contact me at tymofiy.rabchuk@temple.edu and we can discuss it further.
