Context Wavestone's cybersecurity practice is dedicated to guiding clients through the implementation of their Digital Identity transformation projects. Digital identity is a critical pillar for managing cyber risks and is essential for executing a successful Zero Trust strategy (a security model where no user or device is inherently trusted, and access must be continuously verified). Identity Governance and Administration (IGA) represents a key aspect of digital identity management within organizations, defining who can access information systems (identities) and what access rights they possess (permissions), ensuring users have only the necessary rights. IGA projects typically involve large-scale transformations and encompass multiple dimensions: • An organizational dimension to identify the stakeholders responsible for identity management and permissions, and to support these stakeholders in their roles. • A process dimension to establish identity and permission management processes throughout their lifecycle in the organization. • A technical dimension to implement tools that support these processes. • A data dimension to collect, analyze, and prepare data for use in the processes and tools. The projects we undertake with our clients in this area may take various forms, including auditing their current solutions, framing their future projects, providing expertise on specialized topics, managing their transformation project, and deploying their new tools. Objective The purpose of this internship is to enhance Wavestone's knowledge and expertise in Identity Governance and Administration. This includes: • Understanding regulatory developments, • Analyzing new business challenges (e.g., opening information systems to partners, managing bots), new offerings in the IGA solutions market, and modern project management and change management approaches, • Mastering the technological tools involved. Tasks Under the guidance of a consultant and the supervision of a manager, the intern may be tasked with carrying out part or all of the following: • Conducting studies on new challenges and approaches, • Developing benchmarks of IGA functionalities from market solutions, • Creating Proof of Concepts (PoCs) or mock-ups of market solutions (small tests or prototypes to evaluate existing tools), • Developing accelerators or tactical tools...

ContextIn the era of Industry 4.0, the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) into Industrial Information Systems is revolutionizing production processes. AI, when combined with the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and the vast amounts of data generated, enhances performance, predicts failures, and improves decision-making. However, these complex systems, composed of networks of sensors, actuators, and data analysis platforms often connected to the Internet, expose industrial environments to new risks.The introduction of AI raises significant cybersecurity challenges, as it can be misused for malicious purposes, including data manipulation, algorithm attacks, and exploiting existing system vulnerabilities. Securing Industrial Information Systems has become crucial in a landscape where legacy and modern systems coexist, often using varied and sometimes vulnerable protocols, creating opportunities for sophisticated cyberattacks.AI is just one aspect of the broader Industry 4.0 concept, which encompasses technological innovations aimed at enhancing industrial efficiency. The organization of production units is being reimagined, including their internal design and interactions with other enterprise systems, often referred to as smart factories.How can we ensure the security of devices within a heterogeneous fleet of both modern and outdated systems? Such coexistence was manageable when these devices operated in isolation, but is no longer acceptable when connected to the Internet.Internship ObjectiveThe primary goal of this internship/apprenticeship is to deepen the understanding of future factory security (business requirements, security challenges, risk analysis, maturity level, target architecture, etc.), address AI-related issues, and develop tools and methods to assess maturity levels and provide recommendations for securing industrial environments.Tasks to be AccomplishedUnder the guidance of a consultant and the management of a supervisor, the intern will undertake some or all of the following tasks:Analysis of major risks affecting Industrial IT, particularly those associated with AI.Design of a maturity assessment tool (Excel, questionnaire, etc.) focused on Industrial IT security.

We welcome individuals with disabilities in all our professions.CONTEXTThe 'de-perimeterization' of enterprise information systems (IS), a forward-thinking vision conceived by the Jericho Forum in the early 2000s, is becoming a reality due to the widespread adoption of cloud technologies and remote work.We are transitioning from a centralized IS where resources are primarily hosted in corporate data centers and users mostly work on-site, to a decentralized IS where resources are distributed between data centers and one or more cloud environments, allowing users to work from anywhere.This transformation increases the attack surface of the IS while cyber threats continue to find ways to infiltrate these systems. Traditional security models that rely on network security perimeters and zones of trust are being challenged.In this context, the Zero Trust philosophy is gaining significant traction. However, while the theoretical principles are relatively well understood, many organizations are still questioning the concrete steps needed to implement a Zero Trust model.OBJECTIVESThe internship aims to demonstrate the feasibility of a Zero Trust architecture and assess its security level through the design and implementation of a demonstrator.TASKS TO BE PERFORMEDUnder the guidance of a consultant and managed by a manager, the intern may be involved in part or all of the following tasks:Defining use cases for the demonstrator and its functional architectureIdentifying and studying market solutions enabling the implementation of a Zero Trust architectureDefining the technical architecture of the demonstratorImplementing the demonstrator in a cloud environmentEvaluating the security level of the mock-up and the limitations of current solutionsThe exact title and scope of the internship topic will be confirmed at the start of the internship.
