Identifies areas of non-compliance or deficiencies. Makes recommendations and establishes timelines for corrective action. Prepares, distributes and maintains plans, instructions, guidance and standing operating procedures (SOPs) concerning the security of system operations. Reviews and evaluates the security impact of system changes, including interfaces with other AIS. Ensures that all interconnected systems comply with the security requirements levied within the infrastructure and do not have a negative security impact on any other systems with which they must interact and support. Periodically reviews the status of all AIS and networks to ascertain that changes have not occurred that affect security and negate the accreditation. (20%).Draft standard operating procedures (SOP) such as procedures for the analysis of computer network incidents to include: response actions, secure information transfer, media destruction, secure fax, account management, and information technology equipment movement within the SCI, etc.Review audit logs to include firewall, intrusion detection systems (IDS), and router.  Through these reviews, the assigned engineer will determine if there is any unauthorized or suspicious traffic and report findings.Evaluate new security technologies and assist in the integration of new security tools into the USSOCOM network defense-in-depth.  This task will include solution testing and drafting of documents required for deployment of the solution.  This documentation includes: implementation plans, build documents, and concept of operations (CONOPS).Evaluate network security by running scans using SOCOM cybersecurity standard scanning tools.  Results should be compared against DISA Standard Technical Implementation Guides (STIGS) to determine severity of the findings.  Also perform penetration testing using command provided tool(s).  Make recommendations to fix or mitigate risk to the network.Assist in the preparation of certification and accreditation documentation using the DOD Intelligence Information System (DODIIS) procedures, DOD Risk Management Framework (RMF), and DAA selected format.Acts as STSC’s cybersecurity liaison between Hurlburt Field STEN ISSO/Information Technology Team and HQ SOCOM decision makers on cybersecurity issues relate to the STSC and STEN.Draft Cybersecurity polices as they may relate to STEN systems.Work closely with the Global Network Security Center (GNSC), Cybersecurity Protection Center (IAPC), Joint Staff, USSOCOM Global Network Control Center (GNCC), J62, ISSMs, Special Security Office (SSO) and USSOCOM SAPCO (SAP Control Officer) to resolve detected computer network incidents.QualificationsMinimum Qualification:5+ years cybersecurity experience.2+ years ISSO.Security+.CASP+, CISSP or CISM preferred.3 years Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS).2 years Endpoint Security Solutions experience preferred.2 years Splunk experience preferred.2 years SolarWinds SEM experience preferred.Must have Bachelor's degree of Science in Cybersecurity or related field.Active Top Secret with SCI Eligibility.Excellent writing and oral communication skills.Excellent proposal writing skills.Prior experience managing several projects at one time.Self motivated and able to work in an independent manner.Able to work in a fast pace deadline driven environment.Must be able to travel up to 25 percent of the time between USSOCOM and STSC.Job:  Information TechnologyTravel:  Yes, 25% of the timeOrganization:  Cloud LakeClearance:  TS/SCIWork Type:  On-SiteRemote:  NoReqID:  2024-8334
