Information System Security Manager

Information System Security Manager

The Opportunity:  

When our country’s cybersecurity is on the line, simply reacting is not enough, we need a plan. And when that plan needs to protect our nation's airborne networks, we need strategic policy analysis. That’s why we need you, an Information System Security Manager (ISSM) with the expertise required to analyze the policies, procedures, and requirements that determine our cyber resilience. 

As an ISSM of airborne platforms and ground support systems, you’ll review systems to identify potential security weaknesses and recommend improvements to mitigate risk, implement changes, and document modifications. You’ll review technical, environmental, and personnel details from subject matter experts, engineers, and program managers to assess the entire threat landscape. You’ll work closely with the program manager to translate security concepts enabling them to make informed decisions to secure their mission-critical systems. As you guide your client through understanding acceptable risk and availability, you’ll advance the development of a strategic cyber roadmap. You’ll work in a consultative role to ensure the client operates securely as they navigate an evolving environment. 

As an ISSM at Booz Allen, you’ll identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer’s cybersecurity needs and goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions. You will advise on new techniques, and guide the team through critical approaches to design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions to maintain a balance of security and operational needs.
