Nora Berkowitz now earns $22.65 an hour as a Registered Apprentice at Aspiritech - Tekfirm Cybersecurity Consultants, applying her newly acquired skills to tackle real-world Cybersecurity issues.
Nora helped document and support Bonafide’s CMMC audit to bring them to Level 2 CMMC compliance, and her detailed note-taking helped catch a compliance issue missed on the first inspection.
Nora has also gained knowledge of advanced VPN security policies and procedures and helped implement them with various clients. This, along with her investigation and evaluation of clients’ network Firewalls for compliance, has enabled her to fully assess the safety of a client's internet network setup.
Alongside this, Nora’s knowledge of programming and its applications in Cybersecurity has improved immensely during this apprenticeship.
