IT Security Expert Product Testing (m/f/d)

Bonn

Your tasks

As an IT security expert (m/f/d), you will join the SRC team to carry out penetration or compliance tests on products that are to undergo an evaluation in our test laboratory (e.g. in the Accelerated Security Certification BSZ scheme). In doing so, you imitate techniques and procedures from a real attack scenario with the aim of circumventing the security functions of the products or disclosing/manipulating sensitive information. For example, such tests are to be carried out on IT products that have network interfaces that could be the target of attacks. To prepare for the penetration and compliance tests, find out about the technologies used and their potential vulnerabilities on the basis of the product information and publications.
