As a Cyber Threat Analyst at CIA, you will conduct all-source analysis of foreign cyber intentions and capabilities in support of U.S. Government efforts to counter threats to U.S. national security interests.

In particular, you will help identify, monitor, and counter threats posed by foreign cyber actors against US information systems, critical infrastructure, and other cyber-related interests.

You will have the opportunity to maintain and broaden your professional ties throughout your career through academic study, collaboration with Intelligence Community peers, and attendance at professional meetings.

Opportunities exist for foreign and domestic travel, language training, and analytic tradecraft and management training. You will have an opportunity to develop deep substantive expertise and participate in broadening assignments with other offices in the Agency and across the U.S. Government.

Our programs include highly sought-after government health benefits, flexible schedules, sick leave, and childcare. In some cases, we also offer sign-on incentives and cover moving expenses if you relocate.
