Possible CTH role
- They would like a Cybersecurity Analyst with an analytical ability to use the solutions on their own without a lot of training.
- This person will need have experience to know what they should be doing to manage the platforms.
- Their solutions are all cloud based so don’t need to do any patching, just monitoring, working with vendors to make sure tickets are being responded to in a timely manner.
- Vulnerability management – They transitioned from Rapid7 to Qualys at the beginning of the year. Its pretty self-sufficient but need someone who can monitor it, open tickets for anything that’s not getting remediated, work with IT team to patch and remediate vulnerabilities.
- SIEM solution – IBM QRadar- hosted with IBM – they look for threats on the rules, when a rule has an alert they need to work with the IT team to resolve the incidents, mostly just operational noise but need someone who can follow through if an alert goes off and make sure it gets resolved.
- EDR solution- CrowdStrike – well managed but they have alerts that come up, security architect is tweaking policies and rules but mostly self -sufficient, making sure agents are up to date, meeting with vendors to get reports on what’s good and bad and making sure those things get escalated and resolved.
- Currently monitoring IBM Guardian but they’re looking to move that one to the IT department so not as important.
