Description

• Monitor specific cyber threat actors to understand their tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs), and leverage this knowledge to protect the organization. • Identify and analyze threats during the early stages of an attack or compromise, focusing on detecting threat actor activities, including exploitation and risk to critical systems. • Conduct proactive threat hunting to uncover hidden or unidentified threats, track down malicious agents already present in the network, and remove them from the environment. • Use a hypothesis-driven approach and behavioral analysis to uncover connections and correlations between potential cyber threats. • Document findings from threat detection activities, incident investigations, and threat actor monitoring, ensuring all information is recorded accurately for future analysis. • Assist in the development of security awareness programs to educate employees on emerging threats and how to recognize and respond to them. • Continuously gather, analyze, and share intelligence on current and emerging threats from various sources, including open-source intelligence (OSINT), dark web monitoring, threat feeds, and industry-specific information sharing groups. • Support red team exercises by providing threat intelligence insights that simulate real-world adversary behaviors. • Collaborate with IT and DevOps teams to ensure that threat intelligence informs the secure development and deployment of applications and systems. • Monitor for indicators of advanced persistent threats (APTs) within the organization's network, identifying long-term, stealthy threats that may be targeting sensitive data or intellectual property.
