About the Bradley Cybersecurity Clinic
The Center for Cybersecurity is establishing the Bradley University Cybersecurity Clinic, designed to provide students with real-world, hands-on cybersecurity consulting experience and support to nonprofit organizations, small businesses, and local governments.

Assist in drafting reports that summarize findings and provide actionable recommendations. Help clients understand risks and implement low-cost or no-cost mitigation strategies. Collaborate with team members to deliver comprehensive services. Participate in training and development sessions on technical skills and ethical practices. The Cybersecurity Analyst role is ideal for students studying Cybersecurity, Management Information Systems, Computer Information Systems, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, or related majors (but open to all with an interest in cybersecurity).
