Everyone knows security needs to be “baked in” to a system architecture—you know how to bake it in. You can identify and implement ways to harden systems and reduce their attack surface. What if you could use your cyber architecture skills to design and develop secure systems for the Intelligence Community? We’re looking for a Cyber Tools Assessor who can create solutions for the Federal Government that will withstand even the most advanced cyber threats. As a Cyber Tools Assessor, you’ll detect, evaluate, and document the security configuration of developmental and operational tools, security impacts, and make improvement recommendations. You’ll coordinate work with in-house teams, subcontractors, and vendors to identify the right mix of tools and techniques to translate your customer’s IT needs and future goals into a plan that will enable secure and effective solutions. We need to come up with the best solutions, so you’ll investigate new techniques, break free from the legacy model, and go where the industry is going. You’ll lead the team through a critical approach to network design, providing alternatives and customizing solutions, to maintain a balance of security and mission needs.

　　This is a chance to make a difference in the security of cyber defensive operations. Your technical expertise will be vital as you help customers overcome their most difficult challenges by integrating secure practices like SOAR, SIEM, Advanced Analytics, Zero Trust, and Endpoint Detection and Response. You’ll be able to broaden your skillset into areas like utilizing, configuring, and implementing leading industry cyber defense capabilities, including web content filters, email security capabilities, IDS, IPS, HBSS, SIEM, DNS security practices, advanced log analysis, network monitoring, network flow analysis, packet capture analysis, network proxies, firewalls, anti-virus capabilities, Linux/UNIX command line, and access control lists to protect, defend the most sensitive of national security missions while building peace of mind in critical infrastructure. Work with us as we improve cyber defensive operations and tool suite integrations.
