- Collaborate with infrastructure teams to drive analysis and mitigation efforts.
- Lead security assessments of third-party tools, network infrastructure, hosts, and applications, including host enumeration, service identification, and packet captures.
- Identify security gaps, research and recommend improvements, and review new toolsets for potential company use.
- Design and lead a comprehensive training program for all staff.
- Facilitate external security testing and mitigation, including penetration testing.
- Occasionally work on weekends and monitor alerts/emails outside of regular hours, participate in BCP, and conduct cyber incident simulations.
- Lead due diligence assessments of third-party services, aiding the business in purchasing decisions and security testing applications.
- Oversee responses to external audits and Due Diligence Questionnaires (DDQs).
- Create and maintain documentation for internal departments and business use.
- Prepare and present monthly summary reports to senior management.
- Conduct annual reviews and updates of security policies and processes.
- Translate complex security issues into understandable terms for non-technical staff.
- Engage with vendors for product assessments, proofs of concept, and cost-effectiveness evaluations.
Qualifications and Experience
To be successful in this role, you should have:
- 5+ years of experience in a Cybersecurity Engineer or similar role.
- Relevant cybersecurity certifications such as CEH, CISSP, OSCP, or equivalent.
- Experience in IT System Administration, particularly with Linux and Windows technologies.
- Strong knowledge of Enterprise-class infrastructure technologies.
- In-depth understanding of TCP/IP and firewall technologies.
- Proficiency in Linux/Windows command line operations, including process review, service state monitoring, network activity analysis, and service restarts.
- Comprehensive knowledge of server, desktop, storage, network, database, firewalls, SaaS, and virtual machine technologies.
- Experience with Advanced Threat Protection and Behavioral Analytics Tooling.
- Awareness of industry-announced security issues, threat actors, and the ability to interpret and respond appropriately based on risk and impact.
- Experience running exploits/penetration testing to assess internal tools and infrastructure.
- Familiarity with incident management, vulnerability assessment, and management processes.
- Understanding of DLP, IPS, endpoint protection, anti-malware, sandboxing, and vulnerability scanners.
- Knowledge of mail security controls and common attack methods, from phishing to insider threats.
- Strong foundation in TCP/IP, computer networking, routing, and switching.
- Experience in financial or critical production environments.
- Expertise in forensics, including investigation and analysis of breaches or other compromises.
