| Employer & Industry Usage | Financial, healthcare, large enterprises | IT departments, security firms, corporate environments |
The Cyber Risk Manager focuses on identifying, assessing, and mitigating organizational cyber risks through strategic planning and policy development.

Assisting in the operation of client insider risk programs, overseeing a dedicated team of investigators in the triage, analysis, investigation, and remediation of insider risk-related inquiries
Leading client workshops, interviews, and process walkthroughs with cross-functional stakeholders, including Human Resources, Legal, Privacy, and Security, to document business processes, goals, and program requirements
Aligning insider risk indicator and policy development with business needs and industry-leading standards, frameworks, and practices, including the CERT Insider Threat Framework, National Insider Threat Task Force guidelines, and MITRE ATT&CK for Enterprise
Designing and implementing insider risk detection use cases, monitoring processes, and escalation workflows using Security Information and Event Management, User and Entity Behavior Analytics, and Data Loss Prevention capabilities
Evaluating insider risk scenarios, high-risk user groups, and crown jewel assets to help clients prioritize and deploy monitoring, detection, response, and program management capabilities
A successful candidate would possess these skills:
Ability to work independently and collaborate as part of a team
Effective written and verbal communication skills
Meticulous attention to detail and quality of work product
Ability to build and sustain professional relationships
Ability to lead projects or workstreams
Ability to manage and prioritize multiple tasks in a fast-paced and dynamic environment

The team
Deloitte's Cyber team helps complex organizations more confidently pursue their growth, innovation and performance agendas through proactive management of the associated business and cyber risks.

We work across a variety of different risk and compliance programs that extend well beyond Cyber Risk. Learn more about Deloitte Advisory's Cyber Risk Services practice.
Qualifications
Required:
6+ years of experience in insider risk, security operations, investigations, compliance, data protection, or enterprise risk management
2+ years of experience managing an insider risk program or conducting insider risk investigations and monitoring insider risk behaviors
Experience using Security Information and Event Management, User and Entity Behavior Analytics, and Data Loss Prevention tools to support insider risk operations
Experience developing insider risk procedures, playbooks, workflows, metrics, or governance models
Experience working with cross-functional stakeholders such as Human Resources, Legal, Privacy, Ethics, or Security
Ability to travel up to 50%, on average, based on the work you do and the clients and industries/sectors you serve
Limited immigration sponsorship may be available.
Preferred:
Bachelor's degree or equivalent experience
Experience in consulting or professional services
Experience responding to and recovering from cybersecurity incidents
Hands-on experience configuring, tuning, and operationalizing UEBA and/or User Activity Monitoring (UAM) platforms to support insider risk detection (e.g., Splunk UEBA, Proofpoint ITM, Microsoft Purview IRM, etc.)
Hands-on experience with at least one Data Loss Prevention solution such as Microsoft Purview, Proofpoint DLP, or Zscaler DLP
One or more of the following certifications: CERT Insider Threat Program Manager Certificate, CERT Insider Threat Analyst, CERT Insider Risk Measure Management Measures of Effectiveness, Certified Information Systems Security Professional, Certified Information Privacy Professional, Certified Information Security Manager, or Certified Information Systems Auditor
The wage range for this role takes into account the wide range of factors that are considered in making compensation decisions including but not limited to skill sets; experience and training; licensure and certifications; and other business and organizational needs. The disclosed range estimate has not been adjusted for the applicable geographic differential associated with the location at which the position may be filled. At Deloitte, it is not typical for an individual to be hired at or near the top of the range for their role and compensation decisions are dependent on the facts and circumstances of each case. A reasonable estimate of the current range is $134,500 to $265,100.
You may also be eligible to participate in a discretionary annual incentive program, subject to the rules governing the program, whereby an award, if any, depends on various factors, including, without limitation, individual and organizational performance.
