Associate Ethical Hacker (Co-op)

About us

Packetlabs was built by an ethical hacker after seeing vulnerability assessments presented as penetration tests. Our slogan "Ready for more than a VA scan?" drives at the importance of not providing our clients with a false sense of security.

We are a passionate team of highly trained, proactive, ethical hackers. We provide expert-level penetration testing services that are thorough and tailored to help foster a safe digital space where everyone has the right to privacy and security. Packetlabs consultants find weaknesses others overlook and continuously learn new ways to evade controls. We hold ourselves to a very high standard.

To do so, we only hire individuals with the same drive and passion.
