Information Security Researcher Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize

Apply now for the Information Security Researcher Internship in Delhi at CryptoMize — a 6-month certified program on a rolling, always-hiring intake. Somewhere someone is building the attack that hits a client next year; research is how defense sees it first. Information Security Researcher interns join that early-warning work — artifact analysis, tradecraft study, and the detection logic that converts research into protection. This page is the full internship description for freshers who want security research experience where findings become deployed defenses — required skills, eligibility, and the selection process, laid out completely.

QUICK ANSWER

An Information Security Researcher at CryptoMize researches what defense will need next — vulnerabilities and attack techniques analyzed before scale, malware capability studied, detection logic developed from findings, and internal research published in the form the security teams directly act on.

01The actual work

What will you actually do as a Information Security Researcher at CryptoMize?

Research vulnerabilities and attack techniques before they are weaponized at scale — the early-warning work defense depends on

Analyze malware and exploit artifacts to understand capability, intent, and the infrastructure behind them

Study emerging threat-actor tradecraft and publish internal research the security teams act on

Develop detection logic from research findings — the signatures, rules, and analytics that turn knowledge into defense

Responsibly disclose what your research surfaces, coordinating with vendors and the community where appropriate

Build and maintain the research lab — the isolated environments safe analysis requires

Present research to internal cells and, where it is safe, at the conferences the discipline listens to

Sit inside the research lifecycle from question to deployed defense — the full arc that turns curiosity into something a client is protected by

Information Security Researcher Internship — learning path at CryptoMize

Six months, structured. Every intern has a named mentor on the team, and the program is built so a fresher exits with a portfolio, not just a certificate.

  1. MONTH 1

    Foundations on real work

    Lab orientation, the research standards, and first supervised artifact analysis with your named mentor.

    1/6
  2. MONTH 2

    First owned deliverable

    You own a scoped research surface: one technique's analysis, writeup, and detection draft.

    2/6
  3. MONTHS 3–4

    Client engagement work

    Attached to live research — tradecraft study, disclosure coordination, and detection handoffs.

    3/6
  4. MONTH 5

    Deep-dive project

    A research mini-project of your own: a finding or detection adopted by the security teams.

    4/6
  5. MONTH 6

    Portfolio and evaluation

    Capstone review with the research lead. Strong interns convert to full-time offers across research.

02Classification and scope of the client engagement the role supports
03Urgency and time-sensitivity of active project requirements
04Track record built across CryptoMize engagements

Information Security Researcher Internship — frequently asked questions

AAn Information Security Researcher intern researches vulnerabilities, attack techniques, and malware artifacts — analysis in isolated lab environments, detection-logic development from findings, responsible disclosure coordination, and internal publication the security teams act on.

AFinal-year students and graduates with demonstrated research aptitude — CTF, writeups, or projects.

A practical research exercise decides (clinical-licensed roles are the only exception).

ACompensation is discussed during the screening process and depends on demonstrated skill, engagement classification, urgency, and track record.

We deliberately do not publish figures — every intern is evaluated and compensated individually, because the work and the engagements differ too much for a flat number to be honest.

AThe program runs 6 months at our New Delhi HQ, with a certificate provided on completion — and, more importantly, a portfolio of real engagement work with your name on it.

Strong interns receive full-time offers; conversion is a primary hiring channel here.

AA short application form, a research exercise (analyze a sample artifact and write it up), and a final interview with the research lead.

Rolling intake, two-week cycle.

AThe internship is based at our New Delhi HQ in Vasant Vihar, where you work directly with the team that owns the engagements — in the room, on the cadence, from the first week.

Full-time roles occasionally support remote or hybrid arrangements later, depending on the engagement's classification.

ADay to day you work in Ghidra / IDA-class RE tooling, sandbox environments (Cuckoo-class), Wireshark, and Python (research tooling) — alongside the internal engagement platforms and methodologies we train in-house.

We select for the discipline behind the tools: the stack is teachable within weeks, the judgment is what the screening looks for.

AThree things happen at month six: a capstone review with the cell leads, a certificate on completion, and a conversion decision.

Strong interns receive full-time offers — the program is a primary hiring channel, not a courtesy — and the rest leave with a portfolio of attributable engagement work that reads differently from any classroom credential.

AReverse-engineering foundations, malware analysis basics, network protocol depth, and research documentation craft.

The lab and methods are taught in-house.
