Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst
2 days ago
Are you a relentless investigator who thrives on uncovering the hidden tactics of cybercriminals? Do you have the expertise to track, analyze, and predict the latest cyber threats before they strike? If you're passionate about staying ahead of attackers and providing actionable intelligence to protect digital assets, then our client has the perfect role for you. We're seeking a Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst (aka The Threat Hunter) to join our security team and help us stay one step ahead of evolving threats.
Imagine being the key player who identifies emerging cyber threats and provides critical insights that shape the defense strategies of our organization. As the Cyber Threat Intelligence Analyst at our client, you'll monitor threat landscapes, analyze attack vectors, and produce intelligence reports that enable our security teams to respond proactively. This role isn't just about analyzing data-it's about being the eyes and ears of the organization in the fight against cybercrime.
Key Responsibilities:
- Threat Monitoring and Intelligence Gathering:
- Continuously monitor open-source intelligence (OSINT), dark web sources, and internal threat data to identify new and emerging threats. You'll collect, analyze, and process raw data into actionable intelligence to inform security decisions.
- Analyze threat indicators, attack vectors, and adversary tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). You'll produce detailed intelligence reports and briefings that inform decision-making and guide defensive measures.
- Identify and profile threat actors, including nation-state attackers, cybercrime groups, and hacktivists. You'll track their motivations, capabilities, and patterns of behavior to anticipate potential attacks.
- Work closely with security operations, incident response, and vulnerability management teams to provide threat intelligence that enhances detection, prevention, and response efforts. You'll ensure that security defenses are aligned with current threat landscapes.
- Assist in proactive threat hunting efforts by identifying and analyzing threat indicators and anomalies in network traffic, endpoints, and systems. You'll help detect hidden threats and prevent cyber incidents before they happen.
- Provide intelligence support during security incidents by offering insight into adversary tactics, tools, and potential next moves. You'll help security teams respond more effectively by understanding the threat actors behind the attacks.
- Participate in information-sharing communities and threat intelligence networks to exchange knowledge with peers and stay updated on the latest cyber threats. You'll help build a broader understanding of the threat landscape and contribute to industry-wide security.
Required Skills:
- Cyber Threat Intelligence Expertise: Extensive knowledge of threat intelligence, including cyber threats, attack vectors, malware analysis, and adversary behavior. You should be proficient in tracking nation-state actors, cybercriminals, and hacktivist groups.
- Analytical Skills: Strong analytical and investigative skills with the ability to identify patterns, extract key information, and connect the dots between seemingly unrelated data points. You're a master at making sense of complex datasets.
- Threat Hunting Experience: Hands-on experience in threat hunting, analyzing suspicious activity, and detecting cyber threats before they cause damage. You know how to dig deep into data to uncover hidden threats.
- Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to present complex intelligence reports and briefings to both technical and non-technical audiences. You can translate technical details into actionable recommendations.
- Collaboration: Ability to work closely with security operations, incident response, and IT teams to provide intelligence that improves overall security posture. You understand how threat intelligence fits into a broader security strategy.
- Tools Proficiency: Experience using threat intelligence platforms (TIPs), SIEM systems, and cybersecurity tools such as MISP, ThreatConnect, Splunk, or Elastic. You're comfortable working with both structured and unstructured threat data.
- Humor: A great sense of humor, because even in the intense world of threat intelligence, we believe in maintaining a positive and enjoyable work environment. If you can keep the team motivated while hunting down cyber threats, you're our kind of analyst.
- Bachelor's degree in Cybersecurity, Information Technology, or a related field. Equivalent experience with a proven track record in cyber threat intelligence is also valued.
- Certifications such as Certified Threat Intelligence Analyst (CTIA), GIAC Cyber Threat Intelligence (GCTI), or similar are highly desirable. Contributions to threat research, intelligence publications, or open-source projects are a bonus.
- 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, with at least 2-3 years focused on cyber threat intelligence, threat hunting, or incident response. You've successfully tracked, analyzed, and mitigated sophisticated cyber threats.
- Proven experience in analyzing and interpreting threat data from multiple sources, including OSINT, dark web monitoring, and threat intelligence feeds.
- Experience working in industries with high security requirements, such as finance, healthcare, or government, is a plus.
Benefits:
- Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance plans with low co-pays and premiums.
- Paid Time Off: Competitive vacation, sick leave, and 20 paid holidays per year.
- Work-Life Balance: Flexible work schedules and telecommuting options.
- Professional Development: Opportunities for training, certification reimbursement, and career advancement programs.
- Wellness Programs: Access to wellness programs, including gym memberships, health screenings, and mental health resources.
- Life and Disability Insurance: Life insurance and short-term/long-term disability coverage.
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Confidential counseling and support services for personal and professional challenges.
- Tuition Reimbursement: Financial assistance for continuing education and professional development.
- Community Engagement: Opportunities to participate in community service and volunteer activities.
- Recognition Programs: Employee recognition programs to celebrate achievements and milestones.
