Job Description
Our Mission
At Palo Alto Networks’ everything starts and ends with our mission: Being the cybersecurity partner of choice, protecting our digital way of life.
We have the vision of a world where each day is safer and more secure than the one before. These aren’t easy goals to accomplish – but we’re not here for easy. We’re here for better. We are a company built on the foundation of challenging and disrupting the way things are done, and we’re looking for innovators who are as committed to shaping the future of cybersecurity as we are.
The Team
The Public Policy and Government Affairs team is focused on tackling complex global issues, working collaboratively with internal and external stakeholders, for the good of the company and the broader global cybersecurity ecosystem. We're looking for an enthusiastic graduate student with a passion for global policy issues and an ambition to build a longterm career in the field. This isn't just any internship, you'll make an impact and play a real part in the success of Palo Alto Networks.
Your Career
We are looking for a highly motivated intern to join the Public Policy and Government Affairs. This team leads Palo Alto Networks engagement with government globally - building strategic and operational relationships, conducting policy advocacy, and enabling strategic business opportunities. As a global policy analyst intern, you will assist in the tracking and analysis of a broad range of cybersecurity and technology laws, policies and regulations the team tracks globally. You will also assist in the execution of our advocacy strategy tied to those policies, including the development of associated messaging materials and identification of key events and objectives in alignment with those policies.
Our Summer Internship Program from May-August or June-September provides you:
We’re trailblazers that dream big, take risks, and challenge cybersecurity’s status quo. It's simple: we can't accomplish our mission without diverse teams innovating, together.
We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for all qualified individuals with a disability. If you require assistance or accommodation due to a disability or special need, please contact us at accommodations@paloaltonetworks.com .
Palo Alto Networks is an equal opportunity employer.
