They are bringing on a Tier 1 and a Tier 2 analyst directly and have asked for support to bring on this tier 3 analyst. This role on a day to day will be monitoring alerts, proactive threat hunting, and improving security gaps within the department. 50% of the time will be spent improving security gaps (current gaps include baseline, firewall deployments, log filtering, etc). 25% of the time will be spent doing proactive threat hunting.

Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP).
-Experience or knowledge with development and integration of RMF tasks and artifacts into the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is ideal.

6. Analyze anomalous activity and potential threats to Agency connected resources
7. Collaborate with OIA Staff and other agency staff, leadership, business partners and other parties/stakeholders to support security and compliance risk
mitigation efforts
8. Other duties as assigned

 

Notes about Team:

This is a great opportunity for someone who is looking for mentoring experience, this role will provide the opportunity to mentor the SOC 1 & SOC 2 employees. This role will make a large impact on citizens for the State of SC as this will be preventing incidents that may impact in leaking or breach of medical data and personal information. This would be a great opportunity for someone who is looking to get their foot in the door with state government as well.

Business casual/sometimes more informal. This is a family friendly time environment, it is a smaller team. There are about 15-20 individuals in this space from ISSO's, SOC analysts, to compliance analysts. Management is not micromanaging their employees, management is more along the line of coaching their employees and assisting where support is needed. This is a fun group of people
