  • Collaborate with the Insider Threat and SOC teams to identify anomalous activity, such as credential misuse, unusual data movement, and account takeover (ATO) scenarios.
  • Perform advanced data normalization and tagging using the Splunk Common Information Model (CIM) to ensure behavioral data is properly structured for the UEBA engine.
  • Integrate UEBA-generated anomalies and threats into the Splunk Enterprise Security Incident Review dashboard and Security Orchestration, Automation, and Response (SOAR) playbooks.
  • Monitor UEBA system health, including data ingestion rates, model processing times, and platform stability, performing rapid troubleshooting as required.
  • Document technical configurations, threat modeling logic, and behavioral detection playbooks for the engineering and analyst teams.
