  • Experience in identifying and implementing countermeasures or mitigating controls for deployment in the enterprise network environment.
  • Familiarity with technologies such as Network Threat Hunting, Big Data Analytics, Endpoint Threat Detection and Response, SIEM, workflow and ticketing systems, and Intrusion Detection Systems. Support the design, implementation, operation, and maintenance of security applications and tools based on established security architecture.
  • Possess expert knowledge of SIEM technologies, content filtering/firewall technology, and cloud technology.
  • Prepare, validate, and maintain security documentation, including but not limited to cybersecurity incident response plans, risk assessments, and legal investigations.
  • Develop and implement CSOC processes and procedures.
