Job Description

Security Operations Analyst

Egress Software Technologies, a leading Cyber Security company, is dedicated to your wellbeing and career development. We offer unparalleled work-life balance and transparent career paths, celebrating your unique contributions. Passionate about Cyber Security? Join us to work in a stable yet exciting industry. Egress protects thousands of enterprises, including Financial Services, Legal, Healthcare, and Government sectors, from advanced threats, ensuring they can achieve their missions safely.

At the forefront of the IT Cyber Security industry, Egress can provide an unrivalled career path in Security Operations.

The Team

The three Egress security teams report to the Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), these are:

  • Security Operations – the day-to-day management of operational processes and incidents
  • Cyber Security – defining security best practice of technologies and internal pentesting
  • Compliance & Risk – managing accreditations, auditing, and risk management

This role forms part of the Security Operations (SecOps) team, which ensure that we operate our business in line with the defined policies & procedures and manage all group security incidents.

Whilst there are process aspects to the role there are two main areas of focus for the team:

  • Vulnerability management. The team manage issues identified through internal and external vulnerability testing. Internally we use tools like Snyk (one of several tools available) to find issues in the software development lifecycle. Externally, SecOps work with a penetration testing company to define the scope of pentests and manage the process with engineering. Once issues are identified SecOps work closely with operations and engineering teams to resolve them.
  • Incident management. The team manage our security incident response activities, investigating alerts using tools such as Azure Sentinel. SecOps will coordinate the incident response with resolving teams and engage with key stakeholders for updates. As the team works office hours, engaging a managed SOC provider who cover 24/7 incident management.

Beyond close daily collaboration with other security teams, SecOps engages with all teams across the business at every level. In this role you will be a key contributor to maintaining a good security posture and building on our security culture.

Other duties include running the Security Awareness and Training (SAT), UK security vetting, Business Continuity Planning (BCP) and supplier onboarding.

The wider security team work closely together with opportunities for cross-training and career development. The management team actively support personal development, with access to training tools such as Percipio, O'Reilly and Microsoft's ESI. We are looking for a candidate who can demonstrate key competencies, a desire to learn and apply new skills. You will be supported with mentoring from across the team and have opportunities to learn in an environment that uses the latest technologies.

As a security company we also use our own products and services internally, and the SecOps team are encouraged to give feedback to the product management group to help further develop the capabilities of our products with real end-user feedback.

The security team are split between our London and Sheffield offices, but ensure we spend time in social activities and not just work. Whether it's a breakfast catch-up, a visit to an expo or one of our regular social events after work.

The Role

Reporting to the Security Operations Manager, your key tasks may involve:

  • Managing vulnerability scanning tools - SAST, SCA, IaC, Containers & DAST for all Egress products
  • Investigate SIEM alerts, working with the Engineering and Operations teams to resolve issues
  • Managing vetting applications, supplier onboarding and security awareness programmes
  • Plan and manage 3rd party penetration testing
  • Support customer requests for information (RFI) on security related questions
  • Manage supply chain security
  • Identify and contribute to our continuous improvement plan

The Person

As a member of the SecOps team, you will work in a hybrid environment both independently and as part of a team, typically in the office 2 days per week.

You should have experience of security in a cloud environment (Azure or AWS), using technical knowledge to investigate and manage security incidents.

Ideally experience in at least one of the following:

  • Reviewing vulnerabilities found in code analysis tools and liaising with development/engineering to prioritise the resolution
  • SOC investigation of security events in a SIEM (e.g. Azure Sentinel, Splunk etc)
  • A basic knowledge and desire to learn python, to automate day to day tasks.
  • You should have good prioritisation and organisational skills whilst able to stay calm in the event of a high priority incident.
  • You will need to be able to articulate your findings in a persuasive manner and apply good problem-solving skills.

What rewards and benefits would I get in this role?

  • 25 days annual leave
  • Private Medical
  • Free breakfasts
  • Pension scheme
  • Cycle to work discount scheme
  • Regular Charity events & fundraisers
  • Annually funded company kick-off event
  • Management/Peer recognition programmes with rewards
