Contract Vulnerability Scanning Jobs (NOW HIRING)

The Opportunity:

As a vulnerability analyst, you're in the middle of the action, responding to and mitigating threats in real time. You're the first line of cyber defense for your organization, and they look to you for guidance on best practices and security measures. We need a vulnerability analyst like you to help us secure critical infrastructure from the constant onslaught of cyber attacks for a government agency.

As a vulnerability analyst on our team, you'll improve monitoring strategies and analyze threats, using state-of-the-art tools. You'll use your cyber security skills to:

• Lead the enterprise vulnerability management process in support of continuous monitoring and RMF requirements.

• Conduct regular vulnerability, compliance, and discovery scans using tools such as Tenable and Qualys, and interpret scan results.

• Validate and prioritize discovered vulnerabilities based on exploitability, threat intelligence, and business risk.

• Coordinate with system owners and administrators to track and measure remediation efforts and verify closure.

• Provide technical recommendations to mitigate risks identified through assessments.

• Create and maintain dashboards, metrics, key performance indicators, and executive-level reports on vulnerability status and trends.

You'll work with the team to understand, mitigate, and respond to threats quickly, restoring operations and limiting the impact. You'll guide efforts to figure out just how many systems are affected and assist recovery efforts. You'll combine threat intelligence, event data, and assessments from recent events, and identify patterns to understand attackers' goals to stop them from succeeding. This is a great opportunity to hone your cyber security skills with hands-on experience in threat assessment and incident response.

Work with us as we secure government clients from malicious actors.

We are seeking an experienced Senior Vulnerability Analyst to join our Security Operations Center (SOC) team. This role is critical in helping identify, assess, prioritize, and coordinate remediation of vulnerabilities across enterprise systems.
