Day 1 of being employed in Cybersecurity

Day 1 of being employed in Cybersecurity TL;DR I got an internship as IAM Intern in a company called Securentity. I will be posting about my experience and the skills I learnt in future blogs. Yesterday was ny first day. How I got the job I was actively hunting for LinkedIn posts about internship openings (Search bar -> hit enter -> filter by jobs -> type "we are hiring","cybersecurity intern"…

I got an internship as IAM Intern at Securentity. They weren't expecting much from the interns, but I had some hands-on experience with Okta, AWS IAM, and completed labs and a project in these areas. My interview process involved answering questions about programming, Java, OOPS, and core IAM concepts. I knew some of the answers but admitted when I didn't, explaining how I would approach them differently with Python.

The biggest challenge I'm facing is that everyone speaks Hindi, while I don't. I'm slowly learning it and asking others to help me understand.

Your data model is where uncertainty goes to die

The sensor knew how much to trust itself. Our database column did not have room for that, so we threw it away on the way in.

  • Data models discard uncertainty without a column for reliability information
  • Current schema includes data class LocationData with trust score and source
  • Confidence score (0-100) reflects various conditions and accuracy tier
