  • Advanced Threat Hunting : Proactively conduct research and analysis on potential cyber threats, correlating data across multiple platforms to identify trends and vulnerabilities.
  • Log File Analysis : Perform detailed analysis of log files from various sources (host, network traffic, IDS, firewalls) to identify malicious activities or system anomalies.
  • Incident Triage & Resolution : Prioritize and manage security incidents by determining the severity, scope, and impact, and recommending timely remediation strategies.
  • Security Trends & Reporting : Produce detailed reports on emerging threats, trends, and incidents, providing valuable insights for continuous improvement in cyber defence capabilities.
  • Network Security Engineering : Apply your technical skills to troubleshoot, configure, and enhance the overall security posture of MoD’s IT infrastructure.
  • Technical Leadership : Provide expert guidance to junior engineers and SOC analysts, ensuring best practices in cyber defence are applied across the team.

Key Requirements :

  • Cyber Defence Expertise : Deep knowledge of cyber security principles, technologies, and operations, with experience in securing large-scale enterprise environments.

  • Operational Experience : Experience working in SOC environments or handling cyber incidents in a military, government, or critical national infrastructure setting.
  • Decision-Making : Capable of making sound decisions quickly, with minimal reference to the chain of command.
