Job Title: Cyber Security Analyst/Engineer - Sr.
Location: McLean, VA
Duration: 6+ months Contract
Job Description:
Job Description: Cyber Security Operations Center Analyst
Client is looking for talented Cyber Security Analysts with traditional network security and cloud infrastructure monitoring experience to join our Cyber Security Operations Center (CSOC) in McLean, VA. The Senior Associate level CSOC Analyst position will require a deep knowledge of network protocols and infrastructure, log investigation techniques, knowledge/understanding of cloud infrastructures, and incident handling experience. Not only will you need to know about the threats to networks, applications, cloud infrastructure, and theory regarding network protocols, but also the ability to proactively identify signs of misuse and abuse using various log sources.
It is your responsibility to find the threat actors attempting to attack the Client's infrastructure, and route out and stop any malicious actors who make it past our defenses. You will not be staring at a SIEM hoping to find the actionable alert in a sea of noise; you will not simply be following a script and escalating alerts to a tier 3 team. You will be responsible for investigations from start to finish, and for initiating your own investigations to locate malicious activity. In addition to the technical skills, you will need to be a leader, someone who enjoys training and mentoring teammates, and a person who can encourage and elevate the team.

At least 2 years of experience using system, cloud, application, and network logs to identify the root cause of issues
At least 2 years of experience interpreting, and identifying abuse in, routed and routing protocols, cloud, and application traffic
At least 2 years of experience with PCAP analysis, including extracting files and content from PCAPs, identifying gzipped content, base64 detection, cloud based investigations, and cloud network traffic analysis
