Senior Threat Intelligence Analyst
Discovering and analyzing attacker activity across on-premises and cloud environments. Identifying potential threats, allowing for proactive defense and customer notification before an actual incident. Providing recommendations to improve customers' cybersecurity posture going forward and performing threat intelligence knowledge transfer to prepare customers to defend against today's threat landscape.
Building proof-of-concept and prototype threat hunting tools, automations, and new capabilities. Driving product and tooling improvements by conveying learnings from threat intelligence and intrusion analysis at scale to engineering partner teams. Using large-scale query workflows to distill adversary signal within an unparalleled volume of potentially malicious activity to pivot, validate, and scope what matters.
