INTERNSHIP - F5 Solutions & Architecture - From zero to hero

Make an impact with NTT DATA

Join a company that is pushing the boundaries of what is possible. We are renowned for our technical excellence and leading innovations, and for making a difference to our clients and society. Our workplace embraces diversity and inclusion – it’s a place where you can grow, belong and thrive.

Context

Organizations must protect their infrastructure and web applications against cyberattacks, control access to sensitive resources and ensure the availability of their exposed services.

F5 technologies provide several complementary mechanisms to address these challenges, including firewall, load balancing, web application protection, access policy management and configuration automation.

Within this context, the internship aims to design and deploy a demo architecture integrating several F5 security capabilities. The project will be carried out in an isolated laboratory environment, allowing controlled and reproducible testing.

Topic

Your mission will consist of learning, evaluating, and implementing a client architecture that secures web applications end to end, from incoming requests to application access, while maintaining service availability and simplifying configuration management.

You will design and document enterprise use cases covering service availability and load balancing capabilities, web application protection, access control, all included in a secure infrastructure.

You will then deploy a fully functional infrastructure within NTT's internal laboratory environment, and the resulting platform will become a testing and demo center that can be used by our teams to showcase the capabilities and benefits of modern security solutions.

• Enterprise networking & security architecture
• F5 Advanced web application firewall deployment and administration
• F5 BIG-IP LTM service availability and load balancing configuration and operations

You will be part of the “Cybersecurity Practice” global team, composed of experienced network & security engineers either deploying technical solution and services on customer premises (Technical Services team), or managing client infrastructures hosted on shared platforms (Managed Services team).

During the internship, you will receive the support of a dedicated engineer as well as the team leader to guide you while defining the approach and milestones. You will also have the opportunity to participate in all the team meetings and activities, which will enable you to be immersed in the professional world and to be faced with day-to-day challenges encountered in the work environment.
