We are KPN's REDteam. We plan, coordinate and perform security tests on KPN services, infrastructure and systems. Sometimes these tests are purely digital, sometimes physical and sometimes announced and sometimes unannounced to the wider company. Our goal is to find security problems earlier than our adversaries do, whether external or internal. We are a team with people who have a thirst for knowledge, and we pride ourselves on our training and self-development allowance. Our mission is to keep KPN safe.
Your role as Ethical Hacker
In this role you look at systems and networks from the perspective of an attacker. You think about how weaknesses can be exploited both physically and digitally. You have a passion for CTFs, (code) puzzles and spend your free time reverse engineering binaries or playing games like HackTheBox. You will collaborate with other departments within the organization, for example with awareness training, assisting CERT with security incidents and risk assessments regarding geopolitics. You will participate in testing and security efforts of KPN and its interests.
A selection of your activities:
- Mapping risks by investigating and attacking systems, networks and applications.
- Carrying out attacks and providing insight into risks for other departments, followed by providing advice.
- Continuously learning about new techniques and vulnerabilities.
- Sharing knowledge about your expertise and applying your wisdom to make a difference.
