Location of Services: Herndon, VA 20171 (Remote)

Employment Type: Full-time with Benefits

 

Our client is dedicated to facilitating the FedRAMP and FISMA authorizations for new Cloud Products and third-party applications across various cloud environments. This initiative necessitates comprehensive security testing and assessment support, along with the creation and maintenance of essential security documentation, such as the System Security Plan (SSP), plans, and procedures, along with continuous monitoring activities. This position primarily offers remote work post-pandemic.

In this senior-level role, you will act as a hands-on technical security analyst, collaborating closely with build, operations, and security engineering teams to address security issues and enhance information gathering.

Your responsibilities will extend to assisting with security assessments and continuous monitoring for various CLIENT environments, including corporate, commercial regulated, FedRAMP, DOD, and international sectors.

The Technical Security Analyst will maintain the POAM for both commercial and corporate environments, analyze vulnerability scans, develop metrics and trends regarding vulnerabilities, and support the FedRAMP or FISMA authorization processes, including preparation for operations and build teams, along with updating technical documentation as needed. This role requires a deep understanding of security policies, execution of vulnerability scans, evaluation of scan data, and control implementations, leading to informed recommendations and conducting security impact analyses for environmental changes.
