About The Position

Information Systems Security Officer The Opportunity: Cyber threats are everywhere, and the constantly evolving nature of these threats can make understanding them seem overwhelming to government organizations. 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. As an Information Systems Security Officer on our team, you’ll work with system owners to discover their cyber risks, understand applicable policies, and develop a mitigation plan. You’ll get technical, environmental, and personnel details from SMEs to assess the entire threat landscape. Then, you’ll help your team guide your client through a plan of action with presentations, white papers, and milestones. You’ll work on translating security concepts for your client so they can make the best decisions to secure their new systems or for enhanced functionality on existing systems and ensure the requirements are effectively integrated into information systems throughout the System Development Life Cycle. This is your opportunity to take an active role in information security while growing your skills in proposing, coordinating, and enforcing information systems security standards and methodologies. Join us as we protect our nation’s cyber infrastructure. Join us. The world can’t wait.
