Job Classification:

Are you passionate about safeguarding organizations from within by integrating innovative analytics, strategic prevention, and targeted education? Our Cyber Defense and Response team is dedicated to a culture where proactive risk management is part of our DNA. When you join Prudential as an Insider Risk Lead, you’ll unlock a high-impact career path, while continuously growing your expertise at one of the world’s leading financial institutions.

Your Team & Role:
As an Insider Risk Specialist, you will partner with business stakeholders, technical teams, and management to mitigate insider risks. Through centralized integration and analysis of technical and non-technical information, you will identify and assess potential insider risk concerns. You’ll lead all aspects of the investigative lifecycle, which includes conducting digital forensics, collection & preservation, analysis, remediation, documentation, and post incident review. Your role requires strong analytical skills, a deep curiosity of human and technical risk factors, and a passion for continuous improvement and education.

Here is What You Can Expect on a Typical Day

Coordinate cross-functional stakeholders (Security, HR, Legal, Compliance, Privacy, and IT) to ensure insider risk cases are handled consistently and in accordance with company standards and procedures.
Independently lead end-to-end triage and investigations of insider risk events, establishing priorities and enforcing consistent investigative standards.
Ensure proper evidence handling and investigative integrity, including chain-of-custody, documentation standards, and defensible case management practices.
Lead analysis of insider risk incidents to determine behavioral indicators, root causes, and organizational control gaps.
Coordinate response actions with technical and business teams to mitigate threats, protect assets, and manage employee risk appropriately.
Provide executive reporting and risk insights, translating investigation outcomes and behavioral trends into actionable intelligence for leadership.
Drive prevention and detection initiatives, including policy improvements, targeted awareness, and control enhancements informed by investigation findings.
Continuously mature insider risk capabilities, incorporating threat intelligence, behavioral analytics, and industry best practices.

The Skills & Expertise You Bring:

Bachelor’s degree in Information Security, Psychology, Behavioral Science, Computer Science, or related field.
Deep curiosity to understand insider threat risks, drivers, and typologies.
Experience in user activity monitoring, digital forensics, and behavioral analytics.
Strong analytical, problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
Ability to influence training and awareness for purposes of insider risk mitigation.
Familiarity with regulatory and privacy requirements related to employee monitoring and insider risk programs.
Experience with insider risk detection and response strategies.
Passion for research and continuous learning.
Knowledge of data integration tools, SIEM platforms, and forensic analysis software.

Relevant Certifications:

GIAC Certified Forensic Analyst (GCFA)
GIAC Cloud Forensics Responder (GCFR)
Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
SANS GIAC Cyber Threat Intelligence (GCTI)
Certified Insider Threat Program Manager (CITPM)

You’ll Love Working Here Because You Can

Be a key player in protecting our organization’s people, data, and reputation from emerging internal risks.
Join an inclusive culture where your expertise and ideas drive real impact.
Grow your technical and leadership skills through continual learning and hands-on experience.
Help define and shape the future of insider risk management at a globally respected institution.
