Cybersecurity Threat Hunter (SOC Analyst)

How You'll Make an Impact:

• Analyze and evaluate anomalous network and system events in a 24x7x365 Security Operation Center (SOC) environment via conducting lead-less threat hunting.

• Collaborate with MDR Analysts to research and investigate emerging cyber security threats; become an escalation point of contact for advanced intrusion analysis.

• Develop Incident analysis reports and work across business units and customers to bring issues to a close.

• Help design and build operational processes and procedures to improve overall SOC efficiency.

• Provide actionable threat and vulnerability analysis based on security events for many independent customer environments.

• Build test lab environments to research emerging techniques and make contributions to the internal and external knowledge development of threat operations.

• Review sandbox technologies for additional IOCs uncovered from artifacts uncovered during analysis.

What you'll Bring:

• Five (5+) years of experience in an information security role. Progressive relevant training and/or certification may be substituted for one (1) year of the experience requirement

• Experience working in a Security Operations Center (SOC)
