About The Position

At C3, we are pioneers in managed security services and incident response. We're committed to helping organizations make better decisions, reduce risk, and build resilient operations. We work with organizations that range from growing businesses to highly regulated environments. Many of them know security matters, but they need trusted advisors who can translate complex frameworks and technical risks into practical, actionable guidance. That is where our Cybersecurity Advisors come in. If you have experience with diverse cybersecurity frameworks and enjoy solving complex security problems, building strong client relationships, and helping organizations mature their security programs, this role may be a great fit. Cybersecurity Advisor C3 is looking for a Cybersecurity Advisor who is self-motivated and comfortable working both independently and as part of a collaborative consulting team. In this role, you will act as a trusted cybersecurity subject matter expert (SME) helping clients understand their risk posture and implement meaningful improvements to their security programs. You will work directly with client leadership, technical teams, and compliance stakeholders to assess environments, identify gaps, and design practical security strategies. Some days may involve reviewing security policies or conducting risk assessments. Other days may involve advising executives on security strategy, leading tabletop exercises, or helping organizations prepare for compliance audits. The common thread is simple: helping clients make smart security decisions. The Cybersecurity Advisor should be familiar with Federal laws, NIST information security concepts and frameworks, and common industry standards such as SOC 2, CIS, ISO 27001, COSO, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, and COBIT.
