  • Developing strategies, assessing policy and technical constraints, and facilitating the deployment of ICAM solutions into cloud, on-premises, and tactical environments. As senior trusted advisors and leaders within the ICAM community internally and external to MITRE, we apply our knowledge of industry trends, advances in commercial technology, and relevant industry standards and protocols to inform our sponsors’ decision-making.

We serve as experts within the MITRE community on novel security technology and advance its application to solve some of our government’s most challenging problems. Our interests include, but are not limited to, the following: authentication and authorization and the protocols that support them, public key infrastructure, zero-knowledge proofs, trust management, and federation.

We are seeking a qualified candidate to support our growing work program in this highly technical field.

  • Provide technical expertise on the application and enabling of ICAM.
  • Coordinate with the government sponsors to identify cybersecurity requirements, gaps, and design alternatives.
  • Identify how ICAM can enable secure information access and sharing and provide guidance on how to make best use of currently available tools.
  • Assess ICAM designs/implementation on their ability to support functional and security requirements.
  • Work closely with security assessment teams to ensure compliance with ICAM security standards.
  • Propose and lead new research into novel approaches to secure system design involving applications of authentication, authorization, software practices, and cryptography, bringing your unique knowledge to bear.
