  • Perform security hardening for Windows and Linux operating systems, utilizing tools such as ACAS, SCAP, STIG/SRGs, eMASS/Xacta, ESS, Prisma Cloud, Kubernetes, Rancher, and Docker.
  • Apply knowledge of the Risk Management Framework (RMF) to support A&A activities necessary to obtain and maintain an Authority to Operate (ATO).
  • Translate security concepts for stakeholders, ensuring informed decision-making to secure networks and systems.
Our ideal candidate will possess a strong background in cybersecurity, with experience in A&A processes for DoD and IC programs, including package development, artifact generation, and ATO approval. Proficiency in security hardening for Windows and Linux operating systems is also required. Additionally, familiarity with tools such as ACAS, SCAP, STIG/SRGs, eMASS/Xacta, ESS, Prisma Cloud, Kubernetes, Rancher, and Docker is highly desirable.
