• Conduct and support investigations and scans involving sensitive data and applicable requirements, including HIPAA, PCI, and other regulatory or organizational obligations; collect and preserve relevant evidence and document findings.
• Coordinate DLP incident response, containment, escalation, and remediation with Cyber Operations, the MSSP, business and clinical partners, and other stakeholders; track cases through resolution and capture lessons learned.
• Develop, maintain, and refine DLP policies, detection rules, runbooks, playbooks, investigation procedures, escalation criteria, and ServiceNow or other case-management workflows.
• Analyze alert outcomes and false positives and recommend improvements to DLP policies, detections, processes, and supporting tools.
• Develop DLP metrics and reports covering alert volume and disposition, investigation aging and workload, response performance, policy effectiveness, and workflow automation.
• Identify and implement appropriate automation for repeatable DLP tasks, including alert enrichment, evidence collection, case creation, notifications, and escalation; use SOAR or workflow tools where appropriate.
• Support broader Cyber Operations activities as assigned, including complex security incident investigations and response, recovery coordination, cybersecurity projects, and collaboration with peers and operational teams.
• Manage, administer, monitor, and support other assigned security applications; troubleshoot and resolve issues related to cybersecurity technologies.
