You'll also work closely with other groups, such as Threat Hunting, Cyber Risk Management, DLP, SOC, Vulnerability Management, the Red Team, and Incident Response to ensure that important context is captured in order to enrich not just the detections you'll build, but the others' processes and outcomes as well.
