About the Role
As a cyber mission specialist, you will use your cyberspace operations experience to create solutions executed on a worldwide stage. You will apply your expertise in various cybersecurity areas, including Department of Defense (DoD) Risk Management Framework (RMF) guidance, Security Test and Evaluation (ST&E), system vulnerability, and compliance in support of Authorization and Accreditation (A&A) throughout the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). Your role will be vital in assessing cyberspace capabilities, evaluating potential weaknesses, and determining the effectiveness of mitigations for cybersecurity solutions. You will leverage cyberspace operations systems to aggregate threat feeds, inform senior leadership briefings, support research on emerging technology, requisite security requirements, and emerging threats, and develop strategies to meet organizational goals. You will collaborate with headquarters-level decision makers on technical implementations to sustain cybersecurity across multiple technology areas. This role requires you to assess and inform operators and senior leadership on adversarial tactics, techniques, and procedures to support system A&A efforts through cyber risk assessment, policy analysis, technology evaluations, and NIST security control validation. You will analyze system security implementations and application security, providing recommendations to decision makers and engineers, and contribute to the development of operations plans for command and control.
