Job Summary

Under the guidance of Information Security leadership, the Information Security Analyst supports TruStage's cybersecurity program by delivering integrated threat intelligence and digital forensic services. This hands-on role is responsible for reviewing and analyzing incoming threat intelligence to assess risk and potential impact to the organization, applying best practices to inform proactive defense strategies.

The analyst plays a critical role in the incident response lifecycle by investigating escalated threats—such as malware infections, phishing attempts, or unauthorized access—through structured processes that include detection, containment, eradication, recovery, and root cause analysis. Responsibilities also include conducting forensic investigations, performing advanced data collections, and executing eDiscovery requests. The analyst may be called upon to support investigations led by Legal, Human Resources, or other internal stakeholders, ensuring evidence integrity and alignment with regulatory and organizational standards.

The ideal candidate will have experience using tools such as Magnet Forensics Axiom Cyber, Splunk, Microsoft Defender, and the MITRE ATT&CK framework to detect, investigate, and respond to complex security incidents. This role requires a strong analytical mindset, attention to detail, and the ability to work collaboratively across teams to enhance the organization's security posture. Excellent verbal and written communication skills are essential, as the analyst will be expected to clearly document findings, articulate technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders, and contribute to incident reports, threat briefings, and cross-functional discussions.

  • Review reports from tabletop exercises, vulnerability scans and penetration testing to identify weaknesses or gaps in existing security controls and provide recommendations where appropriate.
  • Lead coordination, consultation, and assessment efforts to track and remediate events and alerts, directs response to related incidents, internal or external audits, and / or control assessments.
  • Identify, report, and assist in resolving privacy, compliance or security violations and control gaps.
