MUFG is seeking a Security Analyst with a strong interest in cryptography to join the Cryptographic Posture Management (CPM) team. Cryptographic Posture Management focuses on cryptographic discovery, inventory, and risk-based analysis to assess current cryptographic posture and future readiness across the enterprise.

This role offers hands-on exposure to real-world cryptographic systems and standards, including early planning and readiness activities related to post-quantum cryptography. Analysts in this role develop a practical understanding of how cryptographic risk is assessed, measured, and managed at enterprise scale.  

Why This Role is Different:

• This role focuses on analysis, assessment, and planning, not running production cryptographic systems.
• You will learn how cryptographic risk is measured and managed at enterprise scale, including preparation for long-term transitions such as post-quantum cryptography.
• This role provides a clear growth path into senior analytical, architectural, or cryptographic leadership roles.

What You’ll Work On:

Cryptographic Posture Management:

• Assist in assessing cryptographic posture across applications, platforms, and infrastructure, including:
  • Transport security (TLS, SSH, IPsec)
  • Digital certificates and trust chains
  • Cryptographic algorithms and key usage
• Review and analyze data from security tools, inventories and assessments to:
  • Identify gaps in visibility or coverage
  • Highlight unmanaged, outdated, or non-standard cryptographic implementations
• Support recurring cryptographic posture assessments and metrics used by security leadership

Data-Driven Security Analysis

• Work with structured datasets related to cryptography and encryption controls.
• Use analytical tools to:
  • Summarize findings
  • Identify trends and patterns
  • Support risk-based prioritization
• Help translate technical findings into clear written summaries for security and engineering stakeholders

Future Cryptographic Planning Support

• Support analysis and planning activities related to cryptographic transitions, including algorithm deprecation, certificate lifecycle changes, and post-quantum cryptography readiness.
• Work directly with system managers, application owners, and stakeholders across core banking and enterprise functions to:
  • Assess cryptographic dependencies
  • Understand operational constraints
  • Support planning for cryptographic migrations and long-term transitions

Data & Analytical Skills:

Candidates should have exposure to at least one of the following (academic, internship, or professional experience):

• Excel, including pivot tables, structured analysis, and basic formulas
• Power BI or similar reporting and data visualization tools
• Python for basic data analysis
• Jupiter Notebooks
