Position Summary:
Everfox is one of the world's most significant private cybersecurity software and professional service companies.

  • Reviewing, applying, and remediating security vulnerabilities or security controls based on STIG guidance or scanning reports.
  • Installing firmware updates on physical components such as DellEMC or HPE servers and SANs.
  • Communicating daily with customers and Everfox management, providing detailed activity summaries and in-depth trip reports where applicable.
