About The Position

The purpose of this role is to design the organisation’s computer and network security infrastructure and protect its systems and sensitive information from cyber threats. This involves designing and developing enterprise cyber security strategy and architecture, understanding security requirements by evaluating business strategies and conducting system security vulnerability and risk analyses, identifying risks associated with business processes, operations, information security programs and technology projects, and identifying and communicating current and emerging security threats and designing security architecture elements to mitigate threats as they emerge. The role also involves identifying security design gaps in existing and proposed architectures and recommending changes or enhancements, providing product best fit analysis to ensure end-to-end security covering different facets of architecture (e.g., Layered security, Zoning, Integration aspects, API, Endpoint security, Data security, Compliance and regulations), and demonstrating experience in doing security assessment against NIST Frameworks, SANS, CIS, etc. Additionally, the role provides support during technical deployment, configuration, integration and administration of security technologies, demonstrates experience around ITIL or Key process-oriented domains like incident management, configuration management, change management, problem management etc., and provides assistance for disaster recovery in the event of any security breaches, attacks, intrusions and unusual, unauthorized or illegal activity. The role also involves providing solutions for RFPs received from clients and ensuring overall design assurance. This includes developing a direction to manage the portfolio of to-be-solutions including systems, shared infrastructure services, applications, hardware related to cyber risk security in order to better match business outcome objectives.
