Support incident response activities by gathering evidence, documenting findings, maintaining investigation records, and collaborating with security and technology teams during containment, remediation, and recovery efforts.
Enhance threat detection capabilities by identifying gaps in monitoring coverage, reducing false positives, and contributing to continuous improvement of security operations processes and workflows.
Collaborate with Threat Intelligence, Threat Hunting, Detection Engineering, and Incident Response teams to improve detection effectiveness, strengthen visibility into emerging threats, and support proactive defense initiatives.
