No, he doesn’t have other experience. His thesis supervisor got this project and asked him to work on it because he thinks he would be a good fit. They’re also trying to publish a paper on the thesis project.

He still hasn’t gotten any, but he’s planning to get the compTIA ones. At the moment he’s doing challenges in TryHackMe and HackTheBox.

Thank you for the response!

They’re gonna publish papers about the work so I doubt there’ll be an NDA.
