Knowledge of Application Security (AppSec) principles, secure coding concepts, and application risk assessments.
Working knowledge of major cybersecurity and compliance frameworks, including HIPAA, NIST, and HITRUST.

Responsibilities

Embed security and compliance requirements into all project phases, spanning initiation, planning, design, implementation, and operation.
Conduct comprehensive security reviews and risk assessments for applications, cloud services, and third-party vendors.
Manage and operationalize vulnerability scanning, patch management, and end-to-end remediation activities.
Integrate and support security logging, continuous monitoring, incident response, and overarching threat management processes.
Drive identity and access management (IAM) initiatives and privileged account management strategies across the enterprise.
Provide expert security consulting to project teams and stakeholders regarding secure design, architecture, and implementation best practices.
Validate and support cloud security policies, including the security approval and onboarding of new cloud and SaaS applications.
Review and document security requirements, audit findings, and compliance evidence for internal projects and external vendors.
