  • Identify, analyze and define the attack path of advanced intrusions.
  • Produce reports that can form the basis for new behavioural models.
  • Maintain situational awareness of cyber activity by reviewing new anomalies and tracking attack campaigns through their attack cycle. Track threat actors, tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and associated Indicators of Compromise (IOCs) through the analytics.
  • Follow the analytic results leveraging additional search techniques including Kibana and Athena.
  • Possess 5-8 years of previous professional experience.

What you need to Succeed:

  • Deep understanding of malware methods, attack tactics, and TTPs.
