Background
We are providing Managed Security Services (MSS), providing 24x7 threat detection and response services to our key clients. Typically, there are two key functions within MSS construct i.e., security engineering and security operation.
Security engineering covers the technical and process setup on how the threats are detected via detection rules / logic and SIEM platform. It also covers the onboarding of required log data and deployment of detection sensors.
Security Operation covers the end-to-end process starting when the threats are detected (i.e., alert generated) in the security monitoring platform, analyzed and triaged, filtered, and selectively escalated to stakeholders for validation of true positives. It ends where either the alerts are closed as false positives, or when the incident response process is kicked in.
The role expected is a Resident Engineer role, where it requires some expertise in security engineering and some expertise in security operations, primarily revolving around managing stakeholders and follow-up actions on the proper closure of alerts and incidents escalated.
Key Responsibilities :
- Serve as the primary communication liaison with SOC analysts to handle escalated alerts from the SIEM platform efficiently and effectively.
- Serve as the primary communication liaison with systems’ stakeholders to follow up response actions for escalated alerts.
- Facilitate effective communication and follow-up with various systems’ stakeholders to ensure timely resolution of security incidents.
- Ensure proper closure of escalations and document response actions taken.
- Perform alert triaging when necessary, especially in high-pressure situations.
- Review and analyze telemetry data to identify trends, anomalies, and areas for improvement.
- Collaborate with the team to implement enhancements based on telemetry insights.
- Contribute to the development and refinement of alert triaging processes and procedures.
- Stay updated on industry best practices and emerging threats to enhance operational effectiveness.
- Work closely with other security teams to ensure a cohesive approach to threat detection and response.
- Participate in incident response activities as needed.
