This position will empower you to leverage your research and analysis talents to advise and inform operators and senior leadership on dynamic adversarial tactics, techniques, and procedures.
As a Cybersecurity Analyst and Engineer on our project, you’ll coordinate with the client, system owners, program management office, and system developers to collect and verify information assurance (IA) artifacts, policies, and procedures. You’ll work with client teams to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate the client’s needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions. Additionally, you’ll investigate new techniques, breaking free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. You can identify ways to harden systems and help reduce the attack surface.
As a team, we’ll take a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and risk mitigation needs. This is a chance to learn from a team of experts as you make a difference in the security of systems and applications. Your contributions will help the clients overcome their most difficult challenges by integrating secure practices like shaping and prioritizing defensive cyber operations and risk mitigation activities.
