The Opportunity:
Cyber threats are everywhere, and the constantly evolving nature of these threats can make understanding them seem overwhelming. In all of this “cyber noise”, how can these organizations understand their risks and how to mitigate them? The answer is an information security risk spe cia list like you who will break down complex threats into manageable plans of action.
As an information security risk spe cia list on our team, you’ll use your experience to work with military agencies to discover their cyber risks, understand applicable policies , and develop a mitigation plan. You’ll review technical and personnel details from system and mission owners to assess the entire threat landscape. Then, you’ll guide your client through a plan of action with presentations, whitepapers, and milestones.
You’ll work with your client to translate security concepts, so they can make the best decisions to secure their critical mission data and supporting networks. This is your opportunity to act as an information security subject matter expert while broadening your skills in cross-domain data transfer systems, securing environmental intelligence, and managing cyber risk across all classification levels for DoD data and systems.
Work with us as we protect complex DoD mission data systems.
