USAEV Cybersecurity Compliance Intern - Remote

USA Entertainment Ventures – Cybersecurity Compliance & Risk Management Internship

Build the Framework. Strengthen the Controls. Prepare for Federal Readiness. 
Location: Remote | Duration: 120–365 Days

At USA Entertainment Ventures, secure operations are the backbone of every entertainment, media, NIL, and SaaS initiative we support. As UEV expands into federal contracting, digital infrastructure, and defense‑adjacent innovation, compliance and risk management become mission‑critical. Strong cybersecurity only works when it is reinforced by structured governance, documented controls, and enterprise‑level readiness.

The Cybersecurity Compliance & Risk Management Internship prepares participants to work directly within CMMC readiness, NIST 800‑171 implementation, policy development, internal auditing, and enterprise risk management. Interns help build the operational foundation required for federal contracting eligibility and long‑term organizational resilience across entertainment and technology ecosystems.

This internship is available through the Department of Defense SkillBridge program, an apprenticeship pathway, and a civilian internship track.
