What does cybersecurity look like when the systems you protect power entire communities?

For College of Information Science student Jesse Ceja, an internship with Tucson Electric Power offered a firsthand look at the human side of cybersecurity. From supporting endpoint security to helping promote security best practices, Jesse discovered how his work contributes to protecting the critical infrastructure Southern Arizona relies on every day.

In this episode of InfoSci Voices, Jesse shares how the experience changed his perspective on cybersecurity, strengthened his passion for the field and helped him see himself not only as an intern, but as a lifelong learner building his future in cybersecurity.

InfoSci Voices is a video series spotlighting the people, ideas and experiences shaping the future of information science.
