The Opportunity:
Warnings about cyber threats are everywhere and the constantly evolving nature of these threats can make understanding them seem overwhelming to government agencies. In all of this "cyber noise", how can these organizations understand their risks and how to mitigate them? The answer is you - an information security risk specialist who will break down complex threats into manageable plans of action.

You'll review technical, environmental, and personnel details from SMEs and engineers to assess the entire threat landscape. Then, you'll guide your client through a plan of action with presentations, white papers, and milestones.
You'll work with your client to translate security concepts, so they can make the best decisions to secure their critical infrastructure and mission critical systems. This is your opportunity to act as an information security subject matter expert while broadening your skills in developing and maintaining security tools in an enterprise environment. Join us as we protect our nation's cyber infrastructure.
