   As a member of the Security Operations team, I help in leading the implementation of industry-leading security technologies, advising product and operation teams on how to securely design, and working closely with our SOC. • Provide technical design and architecture advice to internal teams on how to securely develop, evaluate, and secure service delivery within WWT managed services infrastructure. • Utilize subject matter knowledge in industry-leading security solutions and best practices to implement one or more components of information security such as availability, integrity, confidentiality, risk management, threat identification, modeling, monitoring, incident response, access management, and business continuity. • Coordinate with various teams to ensure security controls and services are configured with the correct posture to support business and customer requirements based on organization policy and industry best practices. • Monitor threat information sources and prioritize remediation. • Apply defense-in-depth strategies to protect the company and its clients, e.g. ensure that every attack vector has multiple ways to be deterred, delayed, denied, detected, and defended. • Design, document, test, maintain, and provide issue resolution recommendations for highly complex security solutions related to infrastructure, networking, cryptography, cloud, authentication and directory services, email, internet, applications, and endpoint security. • Perform business process reviews to document risk.
