      • Proactively review and respond to security alerts, investigate audit logs, and determine true vs. false positives within SIEM platforms.
      • Support incident response activities, analyzing timelines, attack vectors, and leveraging frameworks such as MITRE Client&CK.
      • Oversee vulnerability management processes, including scanning, assessing, prioritizing, and remediating threats.
      • Utilize tools such as Rapid7 InsightVM or similar for threat and vulnerability management.
      • Maintain compliance with information security frameworks (e.g., CIS, NIST, ISO27001, SOC2, FedRAMP).
      • Ensure client contractual compliance requirements are met and appropriately configured.
      • Collaborate with IT and other departments to resolve security-related issues and incidents.
      • Manage access requests through ticketing systems and escalate when necessary.
      • Create and maintain visual diagrams and flowcharts using tools like LucidChart to explain processes.

      Qualifications
      • Hands-on experience with Okta or Azure AD/Entra ID, including user lifecycle management, authentication policy configuration, and integration with IAM protocols such as SAML 2.0, OAuth 2.0, OIDC, and SCIM.
      • Proficiency with SIEM platforms, including log monitoring, alert configuration, and integration.
      • Strong background in incident response, with the ability to analyze security incidents and identify attack vectors.
      • Experience in vulnerability management, including CVSS scoring and business impact assessment.
      • Working knowledge of compliance frameworks such as NIST 800-53/800-171, CIS, ISO27001, and related standards.
      • Ability to communicate technical concepts to non-technical audiences effectively.
