As a Cyber Security Engineer, you will serve as the ISSO and RMF SME for the DoD System Authorization and Accreditation process for CPE C2IN products. You will review, assess, and manage systems’ security requirements and validation methods via Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS). You will provide cybersecurity systems engineering oversight on applications development projects to ensure the appropriate security configuration of the operating environment is enforced. You will review and assess systems’ security implementation via product-reported Assured Compliance Assessment Solution (ACAS) Vulnerability scans, Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) Security Technical Implementation Guidelines (STIGs) and Security Requirements Guides (SRGs), and source code vulnerability scans where applicable. You will identify, communicate, and support resolution of deficiencies in security implementation reporting with product teams. You will manage Plan of Action and Milestone (POA&M) records with CPE C2IN product teams. You will communicate DoD RMF system accreditation processes, documentation requirements, and security hardening reporting requirements to CPE C2IN Product development teams. You will provide security considerations to inform systems/development engineering efforts to reduce errors, flaws, and weaknesses that may constitute security vulnerability leading to unacceptable asset loss and consequences. You will facilitate continuous monitoring activities for supported CPE C2IN products. You will coordinate with Engineering and other Cybersecurity personnel to implement and enforce security policies and patch management processes. This includes working with PM ISSEs to review technical information. You will provide technical consultative/advisory services to the PM/Product Manager (PdM) to review proposed new systems, networks, and software designs for potential security risks. You will identify and/or assess vulnerabilities and susceptibility to life cycle disruptions, hazards, and threats. You will support development of program cybersecurity policies and procedures to ensure information systems reliability and accessibility in accordance with Army & DISA requirements to prevent and defend against unauthorized access to systems, networks, and data; for short- and long-term mission and goals of the PM. You will collaborate responses for Army Cyber (ARCYBER) Cyber Tasking Order (CTO) compliance reporting and vulnerability remediation/mitigation requests for information (RFIs). You will support system accreditation and Security Control Assessor – Validation events.
