Abstract:
Internships provide an essential bridge between academic learning and professional practice. They offer students the chance to apply theoretical knowledge from their undergraduate studies in a real-world context. Working alongside experienced professionals gives students invaluable firsthand insight, motivating them to hone their skills and define their future career aspirations. As a final year student of Software Engineering at Daffodil International University, I chose an internship to gain real-world experience. I worked at BRACNet Limited in the Cyber Security Department, focusing on Security Operation Center (SOC) deployment and analyst activities. This internship gave me the chance to work with FortiSIEM and handle real-time security incidents. I learned how organizations monitor, detect, and respond to different types of threats using SIEM technologies.
