  • Security Improvements: Collaborate with the SOC team to continuously improve detection capabilities, including tuning and optimizing SIEM rules, developing custom scripts, and integrating new tools and technologies.
  • Training and Mentorship: Provide guidance and mentorship to junior SOC analysts, sharing knowledge and best practices for incident response and threat detection.
  • Post-Incident Reporting: Prepare detailed post-incident reports that include root cause analysis, impact assessments, and recommendations for future prevention measures. Communicate findings to senior management and relevant stakeholders.
  • Incident Playbooks: Develop and maintain incident response playbooks, ensuring they are up-to-date and aligned with the latest threat landscape and industry best practices.
  • Collaboration: Work closely with other IT and security teams, including vulnerability management, IT operations, and network security, to strengthen the organization's overall security posture.

Requirements:

  • Experience: 5+ years of experience in a SOC environment, with a focus on incident response and advanced threat detection. A track record of handling complex security incidents and conducting forensic investigations.
  • Technical Skills: Expertise in SIEM platforms, IDS/IPS, firewalls, and endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools. Proficiency in scripting languages for automation and custom detection use. Understanding of network protocols, malware analysis, and cybersecurity frameworks.
  • Soft Skills: Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work under pressure.
