About the Role
Infocity in Bhubaneswar's Chandrasekharpur area has a Junior SOC Analyst internship, on site, with a security team monitoring systems for threats. No prior experience is required, and this internship gives real hands-on exposure to a security operations center environment.
A Day in This Job
The work covers monitoring systems for potential threats, investigating and responding to security incidents, and implementing measures to protect company data. An intern here learns to read SIEM alerts and distinguish genuine threats from noise, a skill that takes real, deliberate practice.
What You'll Work On
- Support SIEM tool monitoring under senior guidance
- Assist with threat detection investigation
- Support incident response documentation
- Support log analysis tasks
Qualifications
A bachelor's degree in cybersecurity, information technology, or a related field is expected, along with familiarity with security monitoring tools, vulnerability assessment, and incident response practices, with hands-on tool exposure preferred but not mandatory for this entry-level seat.
Skills That Matter
- SIEM tools
- Threat detection
- Incident response
- Log analysis
Good to Have
Any home lab experience with a SIEM platform, basic scripting for log parsing, and genuine curiosity about why an alert fired before assuming it's a false positive.
Why This Role
Infocity in Chandrasekharpur has become one of Bhubaneswar's more established tech hubs, and this team's SOC environment gives interns real exposure to live threat monitoring rather than only simulated exercises. Naukri Mitra has listed a few cybersecurity roles from this employer, and past interns describe learning to distinguish genuine threats from routine noise as the skill that took longest to build real confidence with.
The Interview Process
Interviews include a basic scenario round on investigating a flagged anomaly and a technical screening. Candidates who ask good clarifying questions tend to interview well.
