• Assess feature adoption and usage, identifying gaps and providing targeted guidance to strengthen protection and effective use of the platform
• Produce and maintain security scorecards and assurance reports that demonstrate measurable security value over time
• Participate in post‑incident reviews with SOC and PSMs to explain incidents in product context, validate control effectiveness, and recommend platform‑level improvements
• Reinforce customer confidence and renewal readiness by clearly articulating security outcomes, improvements, and residual risk within Cynet’s scope
• Identify recurring customer gaps and trends, feeding insights into product improvement, enablement content, and best‑practice materials
• Enable PSMs and partners with consistent, product‑aligned security messaging through collaboration with Product, SOC, and Enablement teams
