As a Cybersecurity Analyst, you will play a crucial role in safeguarding our organization's information systems and data. This position requires a strong sense of ownership and the ability to work independently with minimal direction. You will be responsible for maintaining documentation, supporting enterprise logging and analysis solutions, and analyzing log files for suspicious activity. Your analytical skills will be put to the test as you assess event data for suspicious patterns and define alerting criteria based on your findings. You will develop log policies by creating rules, setting thresholds, and prioritizing alerts based on their impact and urgency. Collaboration is key in this role, as you will work closely with the Incident Response (IR) Engineering team to configure data ingestion and detection rules, fine-tuning detection mechanisms to enhance our security posture. Additionally, you will partner with the Cyber Incident Response Team (CIRT) to configure incident creation, enrich incident data, and assign incidents to the appropriate teams. Regular reviews of policies will be necessary to address false positives and negatives, ensuring that you stay updated on the latest technology trends and threats. Your responsibilities will also include data extraction and reporting, which are essential for maintaining a comprehensive view of our security landscape. This position typically requires you to be on-site for three days a week, with additional days as needed, and occasional travel for 0-2 nights may be required. Your fascination with big airplanes and travel will be an added bonus in this dynamic role.
