Working closely with the cybersecurity team and IT staff, you will play a key role in maintaining a secure and compliant information technology environment.



Responsibilities:

  • Incident Response and Threat Mitigation: Develop and implement incident response procedures to respond effectively to security incidents. Monitor and analyze security logs and alerts to detect and mitigate potential threats promptly.
  • Security Policy and Standards Development: Assist in the creation, review, and enforcement of information security policies, standards, and guidelines. Ensure compliance with industry best practices and regulatory requirements.
  • Security Compliance Monitoring: Monitor and track compliance with security policies and procedures, conducting periodic audits and assessments to ensure adherence to established security standards.
  • Secure Network Architecture: Design and implement secure network architectures, segmenting critical data and systems from less sensitive resources to minimize attack surfaces and potential impact.
  • Security Incident Investigation: Lead investigations into security breaches, identifying the root cause and recommending preventive measures to enhance security posture.
  • Data Protection and Privacy: Implement data protection measures, encryption techniques, and privacy controls to safeguard sensitive data and comply with relevant data protection regulations.


Qualifications:

Required:

  • BA/BS + 5 years relevant experience (additional 5+ years of recent relevant experience may be substituted for degree, for total of 10+ years of experience)
  • Proven experience as a Security Engineer or in a similar role, with expertise in information security practices and technologies.
  • Active Secret Clearance
  • Strong knowledge of network security, operating systems, databases, and application security principles.
  • Familiarity with industry security standards and frameworks such as NIST or DoD Controls
  • Experience with vulnerability scanning and penetration testing tools.
  • Ability to analyze security incidents, perform root cause analysis, and propose effective solutions.
  • Knowledge of encryption technologies, access controls, and identity and access management (IAM) principles.
  • Excellent communication and problem-solving skills to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Required DoD 8140 compliant certification such as CompTIA Security+
  • Other relevant cybersecurity certifications like Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP), or Certified Information Security Manager (CISM), are a plus.
  • Understanding of regulatory requirements related to information security (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA) is advantageous.
  • Familiarity with cloud security concepts and solutions is a plus.
  • Dedication to staying current with emerging cybersecurity trends and threats.
