Ethical Hacker

Your role as Offensive Security Expert

As a Security Expert, you will be working together with your colleagues breaking into Fortune 500 companies, governments, financial institutions and critical infrastructures to improve their security. You will be taking part in all assignment types covered by NCC group. Assignments can range from hacking web applications or hardware to Red Teaming. There are also options to join Incident Response cases and digital or physical social engineering.

As a Security Expert, you will apply state of the art methodologies, tooling, and skills to demonstrate real vulnerabilities, and help clients improve their security posture and technical controls to mitigate the issues. You will conduct ongoing research into latest tactics, techniques and procedures. You will collaborate with NCC’s technical consultants and discover dangerous flaws and major security vulnerabilities for our clients before they’re found by hackers of more malicious intent.

Due to the sensitive nature of our work and the focus on privacy, you cannot freely talk to everyone about the details of your work. However, you are able to speak in a more anonymized fashion meaning you’ll be able to tell stories about how you hacked an ATM, stole all the money and broke into a high secure facility using nothing more than your wits and a teaspoon.
